An anatomically realistic boundary representation phantom for studying vhf–uhf radiation effects

Both ionizing and non-ionizing radiation dosimetry studies, medical imaging technologies, and image reconstruction algorithms require computational phantoms to assess health effects, to analyze efficiency and to test algorithms. The goal of this study is to overview existing models of a human body and to develop the anatomically realistic boundary representation phantom for VHF–UHF electromagnetic and coupled field studies. We use simulated magnetic resonance images as the source of the phantom geometry.
