Abstract	Hydroxyapatite (HAp, Ca10(PO4)6(OH)2) bioceramic andchitosan (poly [( -1-4) D-glucosamine]) biopolymer show good biocompatibilityin vivo. They have biological origin and show excellent interactionswith microwave. Microwave study of HAp made using differentdrying techniques and their composites with chitosan in the ISM band ispresented. Pastes are made using HAp and chitosan with different ratiosof mixing. The dielectric properties of this composites match with that ofhuman fat, collagen tissues. Some of the compositions exhibit dielectricproperty close to that of natural bone. This makes them morebiocompatible and better substitutes for natural bone. Thus compositebioceramics can be considered as phantom model constituents forimaging purposes. Their dielectric properties prove that they arebiocompatible.
