In this work, we propose a heuristic methodology using hydration models as a base to realize an automatic and noninvasive procedure to estimate an ad hoc map of the complex dielectric permittivity of a generic human tissue in the frequency range of microwaves based on their solid and water content.

The approach we have chosen is based on finding the geometrical conditions to null the unnecessary terms of the Taylor expansion of the analytical description of the field to generate. One of the methods is based on a paper written by Prof. Sir Peter Mansfield the second one use the Target Field Method devised by Professor Robert Turner and can be useful even to design coils with active screen.

A qualitative validation comparing the data obtained from the model with those available in the literature has been performed.

Two different approaches to gain the same goal will be outlined and discussed in order to draw a roadmap for subsequent studies and refinements which will lead to dielectric properties finding.
