Abstract(in English) There has been increasing public concern about the interaction between living bodies and radio frequency fields. This manuscript explains electromagnetic and thermal computational dosimetric techniques in biological bodies, which has been developed by the authors' group. For solving the induced electromagnetic fields in the living bodies, the finite-difference and time-domain method is used. Then, the temperature elevation is computed by solving the bioheat equation. The feature of our thermal dosimetric method is that core temperature variation can be computed reasonably unlike conventional methods. Specifically, the blood temperature is changed so as to satisfy the first law of thermodynamics. This scheme is particularly useful for intense localized or whole-body electromagnetic wave exposure where the variation of core temperature should be considered. Some computational examples are presented in order to clarify the effectiveness of our method.
