Dosimétrie radiofréquence; radiofrequency dosimetry
Refers to all the measurement and modeling techniques used to establish the relationship between the distribution of incident electromagnetic fields and the fields induced in biological tissues, and to calculate the absorbed power of electromagnetic radiation.
Specific Absorption Rate SAR
Basic parameter in radiofrequency electromagnetic dosimetry representing the electromagnetic power dissipated per unit mass of biological tissue.
Fantôme; phantom
Container replicating all or part of the human body and containing the tissue-equivalent liquid.
Tissue equivalent liquid
Homogeneous liquid whose dielectric properties are equivalent to those of the heterogeneous real...
