Skin cancer detection proves to be complicated and highly dependent on the examiner’s skills. Millimeter-wave technologies seem to be a promising aid for the detection of skin cancer. The different water content of the skin area affected by cancer compared to healthy skin changes its reflective property. Due to limited available resources on the dielectric properties of skin cancer, especially in comparison to surrounding healthy skin, accurate simulations and evaluations are quite challenging. Therefore, comparing different results for different approaches and starting points can be difficult. In this paper, the Effective Medium Theory is applied to model skin cancer, which provides permittivity values dependent on the water content.
