Recent Advances and Future Perspective in Computational Bioelectromagnetics for Exposure Assessments

Abstract

ABSTRACTIn the last few decades, extensive efforts have been dedicated to developing computational methods for modeling the interaction of the human body with electromagnetic fields (EMFs). These studies are crucial for the establishment of exposure limits in international standards and guidelines for human protection from EMF, as well as for advancing personalized dosimetry assessment for medical applications using EMF. To summarize the state‐of‐the‐art knowledge in this field, the IEEE International Committee on Electromagnetic Safety (ICES) held an International Workshop on Computational Bioelectromagnetics in February 2024. This review summarizes the technical presentations and discussions from the workshop and was contributed by multiple authors, encompassing topics such as the tissue dielectric property measurement, low‐frequency and radio‐frequency bioelectromagnetic modeling methods, stochastic modeling in electromagnetic‐thermal dosimetry, intercomparison studies, and computational uncertainties. The insights gained from this workshop will guide future research and aid in the development of more accurate and reliable exposure assessment methods.
