CADFEM's Innovative Shield Boosts MRT Patient Safety

CADFEM, a leading German provider of simulation technology and digital engineering since 1985, has made significant strides in reducing heat damage to metal implants during Magnetic Resonance Tomography (MRT) procedures. Their innovative electromagnetic shield element can significantly decrease relevant losses in implants, enhancing patient safety.

CADFEM's expertise lies in numerical simulation models that precisely analyze complex electromagnetic conditions in MRT. By employing a semi-cylindrical shield around the implant, they've demonstrated a nearly six percent reduction in loss power. This is crucial as MRT can cause heating of metal implants, leading to potential internal burns.

The company's comprehensive approach extends beyond software. They offer consulting, simulation calculations, automations, and IT solutions tailored to clients' needs. Their simulations can calculate electrical field strengths and Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) to predict implant heating, enabling proactive measures to mitigate risks.

CADFEM's influence spans various sectors, including autonomous driving, virtual cities, personalized medicine, and smart factories. They provide training on over 100 different topics, making them one of the world's largest providers of continuing education in the tech industry.

CADFEM's innovative electromagnetic shield element, coupled with their extensive simulation capabilities and industry-wide influence, stands to significantly improve patient safety during MRT procedures. Their commitment to comprehensive digital engineering solutions continues to drive progress in medical technology.
