SEMCAD X MED

SEMCAD X MED combines the EM FDTD, magneto-static, magneto-quasi-static and thermal solvers, a powerful to a robust platform. The SEMCAD X MED solution is trimmed to simulate and visualize electromagnetic fields interacting with human and biological tissues in any challenging environments. This ideal toolbox is addressing any modelling requirements from MR design (RF and gradient coils) to implant antenna and lead safety.
