  • Abstract
    Virtual anatomical models are increasingly used for a number of applications, ranging from (non)-ionizing radiation assessment to medical treatment and implant development. Accordingly, the number of available models has been increasing rapidly during recent years, and dosimetric studies for engineering and medical purposes are blooming. Here, we discuss an example of passive implant safety assessment to demonstrate how numerical simulations results can vary with the quality and detail of particular anatomical models.
