| Summary: | Diagnosis of diseases plays the most vital role in treatment. Moreover it is a tough task. Once the disease is identified correctly its treatment can be done accurately. Diagnosis is presently done by studying the chemical property of the blood. The authors want to attract the attention of researchers that the electrical properties of blood are equally important for early detection of diseases through this paper. The authors have observed that the capacitance of the blood changes with different diseases and they would discuss their observations in the paper. The capacitance is the ability of body to store energy due to the cellular activities in membrane. An elevated value of cell capacitance indicates the size of the cellular membranes, in contrast a decreased value of capacitance of living cell has lower amount of energy stored in cellular membrane. It should be noted that the blood contents changes with diseases. The variation in blood constituents changes the dielectric property of blood. As a result the membrane capacitance varies with different diseases and its value is plays an important role in the diagnosis of diseases. The blood capacitance changes in diseases like diabetes, cancer and renal failure. This paper discusses the importance of electrical property of blood in diagnosing the many diseases.
