Dielectric properties of ocular tissues at 37 degrees C

Abstract
Values of the relative permittivity, dielectric loss and conductivity are given for various rabbit ocular tissues at frequencies in the range 10 MHz-10 GHz. The tissues measured were cornea, retina, choroid, iris, and the cortical and nuclear zones of the lens. The dielectric parameters were determined using the technique of multiple response time domain spectroscopy. For all tissues the water relaxation could be characterised by a Debye dispersion with a relaxation time longer than that of pure water, indicating that its dielectric behaviour was affected by the presence of the biological macromolecules.
