NEVA (Bio)Electromagnetics
NEVA EM constructs anatomical true-CAD cross-platform human models for electromagnetic, computational fluid dynamics, thermal, and structural simulations
The models are compatible with ANSYS software, Dassault Systèmes (SIMULIA Corporation) software, and other software packages. All tissue parts are also accessible in MATLAB® format.
Static VHP-Female model v2.2 - VHP-Female College - is also available to all interested professionals free of charge and is a product of NSF SBIR Phase I grant 1520168 and NIH/National Library of Medicine SBIR Phase I grant R43 LM012352-01A1
VHP-FEMALE v.2.2/3.0/3.1/5.0 CAD MODEL
Created using the open-source high-resolution cryosection image dataset from the Visible Human Project® (VHP) Female of the U.S. National Library of Medicine. This anatomical CAD model has up to 270 parts, 45 individual muscles, three body shells, a continuous CSF shell, improved resolution in the cranium, major peripheral nerves, and a full co-registration/validation map. Every part is available for 3D printing
FDA MDDT Qualification Submission (03/27/2016)
Medical Device Development Tool (MDDT - MDDT Type: Non-clinical assessment model) qualification submission has been accepted by the FDA (Center for Devices and Radiological Health) and is currently under evaluation. To date, this submission covers the following FEM models:
VHP-Female version 3.0 SMOOTHED DOI:10.20298/VHP-Female-V.3.0-SMOOTH
VHP-Female version 3.0 BASE DOI:10.20298/VHP-Female-V.3.0-BASE
VHP-Female version 2.2 COLLEGE DOI: 10.20298/VHP-Female-V.2.2
Example: Local SAR distribution for a coil loaded with the VHP-Female v. 3.0 model at 1 W input power in the coronal plane at 63.87 MHz. a) – Landmark of model inside the birdcage; b) – solution with one adaptive pass; c) – solution with eight adaptive passes
