Dielectric properties of kidney stones as electro-ceramics.
Dielectric properties of kidney stones in processed form are studied in a frequency range of 1 kHz-10 MHz. The samples under test are in the form of discs of the stones. The dielectric properties are found to be highly dependent on the frequency, and as expected, similar to those of conventional electro-ceramics and other such bio-materials, due to presence of alpha-quartz in the calculi.
