This numerical study modeled RF exposure from WiFi/5G-type antennas near a 3D brain model with implanted brain pacemakers relevant to Parkinson’s disease. SAR and temperature increases were reported to remain below ICNIRP 2020 limits across modeled conditions, with maxima at a 90° antenna-to-brain angle. Despite…

This numerical FDTD study modeled RF exposure at 900 and 1800 MHz in tissue containing thin metallic straight wire implants. The model indicates that the wire can substantially increase local SAR, creating high SAR gradients. Despite this, the authors report that exposures below current safe levels resulted in…
