Abstract: We measure the insertion loss of mice skin for millimeter waves. Millimeter waves are used today for various applications such as communications, fog penetrating radar, and detection of concealed weapons and drugs. High-power millimeter wave has been suggested as a non-lethal weapon and recently also for selective cancer treatment. Mice serve as biological models for human beings. Hence, in order to study various effects of millimeter waves on human beings, it is of paramount importance to understand how much millimeter-wave power penetrates the mouse skin and affects the layers beneath the skin, which is the purpose of this experimental paper.
