Abstract :
The dielectric properties of normal canine spleens containing neoplastic lesions are discussed. Six splenic tumors were examined: two hemangiosarcomas, two mast cell tumors, one lymphosarcoma and one metastatic heart base tumor. The dielectric properties of the neoplastic tissues were compared to those of the nonneoplastic tissue. No significant differences between neoplastic and normal tissues are seen
