Experimental and Computational Study of the Temperature Distribution at the Surface of a Metallic Implant Exposed to High Frequency Electromagnetic Fields

The dramatically increase in number of the portable devices with radiofrequency (RF) transponders builtin, wireless devices, like mobile phones, smart phones, tablets and so on, and the use of this kind of equipments in the vicinity of the human body rise a strong question about their safety, especially for persons wearing metallic implants like the vascular stents in the head and neck region.
