Human Anatomical Models, Digital Twins and in silico Clinical Trials in RF Safety Assessment

June 16, 2021 @ 10:00 am - 11:00 am EDT

The use of numerical exposure evaluations performed with high-resolution anatomical models has become an essential part of the safety assessment of radiofrequency (RF) fields over the last two decades, in applications from wireless communication and power transfer to wearable and implanted medical devices. This lecture reviews those applications of human anatomical models, and discusses the two important trends going forward: the first, using a wide range of anatomical models to perform in silico clinical trials and define a representative envelope of potential outcomes for the population; the second, using morphed and posed models to create a ‘digital twin’ to perform precise assessments relevant for a specific person.

Biography:  Tolga Goren is Head of Customized Research at the IT’IS Foundation, which was established in 1999 through the initiative and support of the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology (ETH) Zurich, the global wireless communications industry, and several governmental agencies, and is headquartered in Zurich, Switzerland. IT’IS performs fundamental research, performs R&D services for industrial partners, and participates in the development of international safety standards.

Tolga’s team performs evaluations of RF safety including, among others, active implanted medical devices according to ISO 10974 and wireless devices according to IEC 62209-1528. He studied Materials Science and Applied Mathematics at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute in New York, and completed his doctorate at ETH Zurich in 2014.
