Abstract

The enhanced ability to detect accurate location and measure the depth of a   metal inside a biological tissue is very useful in the assessment of medical condition and treatment. This manuscript proposed a solution via the measurement of the tissue properties using magnetic induction spectroscopy (MIS) method to describe the characterization of biological soft tissue. The objective of this study is to explore the viability of locating embedded metal inside a biological tissue by measuring the differences the biological tissue electrical properties using principle of Magnetic Induction Spectroscopy (MIS). Simulation is done using COMSOL Multiphysics software for accurate information on the involved parameters for both metal and biological tissues. Simulation has confirmed that MIS capable of detecting and locate embedded metal inside a biological tissue.
