TESTICULAR TEMPERATURE IN MAN

Herbert F. Newman, Seymour F. Wilhelm · 1950

Researchers measured testicular temperatures in 28 volunteers using tissue thermocouples inserted through the scrotal skin. Testicular temperatures were usually lower than rectal temperatures and changed with environmental temperature. Inguinal canals were warmer than the testes in most anesthetized men (average 2.7°F) and warmer than scrotal cavities in all cases (average 3.6°F).

Dielectric Properties of the Human Body for Wave-lengths in the 1-10 cm. Range

T. S. England · 1950

Researchers extended earlier dielectric measurements at 3-18-cm. wavelength to 1-27-cm. and 10-0-cm. wavelengths using surgical tissue specimens. Absorption and phase constants were recorded for each tissue in a waveguide, with measurement accuracies of +10 per cent in absorption and +5 per cent in phase at 1-27-cm., and +5 per cent in absorption and +2 per cent in phase at 10-0-cm. Most tissues behaved like water, fat and bone were relatively transparent, and malignant and normal tissues did not differ significantly.

DIELECTRIC PROPERTIES OF TISSUES IMPORTANT IN MICROWAVE DIATHERMY

J. F. HERRICK, D. G. JELATIS · 1950

The study measured dielectric constant and loss of freshly excised tissues including liver, muscle, fat, bone, and bone marrow. The researchers used a microwave dielectrometer they designed and built for the measurements. They also presented dielectric properties of certain body fluids and designed a transformer to improve microwave power transfer into muscle.
