Abstract
The scope of this article is to compare two methods to extrapolate the water content of human tissues from magnetic resonance imaging. 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.
