Microwave Evaluation of Electromagnetic Compatibility of Dielectric Remedial and Therapeutic Materials with Human Body

Inherent attribute of the materials using in medicine and biology is microwave range electromagnetic radiation (EMR). The methods of the identification and determination of the compatibility of indicated materials are considered in the paper. The man-made and natural sources of the microwave radiation are described. Examples of the microwave signals using in practical medicine technologies are given. The parameters of microwave signals that can be used to identify biomedical materials are determined. The features of the studied positive and negative electromagnetic radiation streams and possibilities for their use for therapy and identification of biomaterials are described. The results of experimental investigation of the EMR of dental materials are presented. Electromagnetic properties of the dental materials and natural teeth tissues were compared. The recommendations for possible use of the biomaterials electromagnetic identification methods are given. The features of the materials for the physiotherapy were studied experimentally. It was stated that physiotherapeutic materials in determined regimen of the therapy, beside the thermal action, form microwaves streams that could be positive or negative. The level of the microwave component and corresponding physiotherapeutic procedure effectiveness may be regulated by the combination of the physiotherapeutic materials
