ABSTRACT: The diagnosis o f focal and global tissue structure changes play in both, the transplant surgery and the minimalinvasive surgery, a crucial role. In many application areas of medicine, there is currently no measurement system that can capture these structural changes, but an experience knowledge base of the surgeons and pathological findings, which are time-consuming. In this paper the physical principles of a measuring device that detects structural tissue changes by applying high frequency electromagnetic fields is presented.
