Bioeffects and Therapeutic Applications of Electromagnetic Energy

Taking a multidisciplinary approach drawn from several different intellectual streams that include physics, epidemiology, medicine, environment, risk assessment, and various disciplines of engineering, this book ventures into three main areas related to bioeffects and therapeutic applications of EM energy. First, it provides a review of cutting-edge research in EM health effects as well as risk assessment of low frequency fields and radio frequency radiation. It then addresses standards and protection guidelines related to EM human exposure. Lastly, the book highlights recent advances in therapeutic applications of EM energy, EM and thermal dosimetry, and imaging techniques.
