Abstract

We demonstrate that truncation of biological models combined with application of proper transmission boundary conditions on interfaces created by the truncation allow to simulate field distributions and specific absorption rates at significant memory and computation time savings without compromising the accuracy of integral equation formulations. The proposed technique can provide a reliable and efficient approach for hyperthermia treatment planning or design of wireless personal devices.
