Abstract
Techniques are described for a non-invasive detection of a health condition of an organ. In an example, the electrical conductivity of the organ reflects the organ's health of. An inductive damping sensor can be used to detect the organ's electrical conductivity and, thus, its health. The inductive damping sensor can be placed in proximity of the organ such as the organ is within the magnetic field generated based on a coil of the inductive damping sensor. The conductivity of the organ impacts the inductance and the resistance of the coil. Hence, the inductance and/or resistance of the coil can be measured, where the measurements can be associated with the health of the organ.
