Accurate knowledge of the dielectric properties of organ tissues is useful for many medical
applications. Numerous studies have been published characterising various tissues but …

Methods Six acute porcine experiments were performed with direct ES by 4 ES parameter
sets (30 seconds, 25 mA, 500 microseconds or 1000 microseconds, 30 Hz or 130 Hz) …

Gastrointestinal (GI) motility disorders are frequent and clinically significant conditions with
impairment of patient's quality of life. Examples range from upper GI symptoms such as …

With a view to the future development of wearable intestinal monitors and to the future
application of vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) for intestinal activity modulation, a dedicated …

BACKGROUND: Gastric electric stimulation (GES) at a high-frequency, low-energy setting is
an option for treating refractory gastroparesis. The currently available commercial stimulator …

This paper discusses the impact of tissue dehydration on the dielectric properties of excised
tissue samples. The effect of dehydration on the tissue surface has been characterized as a …

Electromagnetic (EM) medical technologies are rapidly expanding worldwide for both
diagnostics and therapeutics. As these technologies are low-cost and minimally invasive …

Background. Electrogastrography and electroenterography are noninvasive methods for
measuring gastric and intestinal electrical activities, respectively. Few studies have …

Previous studies have demonstrated that gastric electrical stimulation (GES) with a high-
frequency (12 cycles/min) is able to significantly improve nausea and vomiting in patients …

Electromagnetic (EM) breast imaging provides low-cost, safe and potentially a more specific
modality for cancer detection than conventional imaging systems. A primary difficulty in …
