Zusammenfassung:This article reports a new in vitro bile analysis based on the measurement of the dielectric properties at microwave frequencies. The measurements were made using rectangular cavity perturbation technique at the S‐band of microwave frequency with the different samples of bile obtained from healthy persons as well as from patients. It is observed that an appreciable change in the dielectric properties of patient's samples with the normal healthy samples and these measurements were in good agreement with clinical analysis. These results prove an alternative in‐vitro method of detecting bile abnormalities based on the measurement of the dielectric properties of bile samples using microwaves without surgical procedure. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
