Numerical examinations of simplified spondylodesis models concerning energy absorption in magnetic resonance imaging

Metallic implants in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) are a potential safety risk since the energy absorption may increase temperature of the surrounding tissue. The temperature rise is highly dependent on implant size. Numerical examinations can be used to calculate the energy absorption in terms o...
