Let's simulate - Implant Heating
Electromagnetic fields and MRI: specialist knowledge and practical tips for simulating unwanted temperature increases
How does exposure to magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) affect the inner workings of the body? Dr.-Ing. Jörg Neumeyer, Alexander Shalaby and Fred simulate unwanted temperature increases that could occur during the examinations due to electromagnetic fields and losses in the human body. Metallic components, in particular, are critical here and require closer examination. With the comprehensible mathematical derivations as well as the valuable personal tips and tricks of the experts, you will be able to set up such simulations yourself in the future after this season. Please note, lecture language is German!
