Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) Electromagnetic interference of implanted pacemakers by mobile telephones has been investigated by FDTD method. An implanted cardiac pacemaker, lead wire and an electrode are modeled in realistic voxel models of Japanese adult male and female which were constructed from MRI images. It is shown that the induced voltage at a connector of the pacemaker in European-American voxel model is higher than those in Japanese models. It is also shown that the induced voltage for the Japanese male model is higher than that of Japanese female model. Furthermore, it is shown that the induced voltage evaluated by an experimental method using homogeneouse recutangular model is higer than those of the human models, that is the rectangular model provides the most safety estimation.
