Estimation of dielectric values for tissue water in the Terahertz range

We present an approach for tissue water, which uses literature values of complex refractive index for pure water together with some considerations regarding the effects of dissolved salts. The approach also involves modeling of Debye and Lorentz absorption parameters, which provides a method for the estimation of ϵ and σ in other tissues.
