N2 - A modern health system increasingly relies on modern sensing tools to aid in patient care. This paper suggests exploiting accessible electromagnetic radiation properties of propagation delay, attenuation and dispersion to extract biomedical parameters and to assess medical conditions continuously, in a non-invasive way, and with a minimal cost. It is performed by employing a set of sensors equipped with wireless capabilities that transmit to the medium of interest a known pattern of electromagnetic radiation. From the partial reception of the signal at the sensors, parameters like tremor characteristics, distance between body parts, and tissue bleeding indicator, can be derived and then used for medical diagnosis.
