Biotechnology is rich with coupled physics effects. Multiphysics
simulation is providing critical tools for medical organizations
to create realistic computer models for advancing medical treatments
and medical devices. Following a short survey of examples of
multiphysics in the biosciences, this webinar will concentrate
on five forms of bioheating: low and high frequency electromagnetic
waves, lasers, acoustic waves and chemical reactions. The key issue
in bioheating is whether or to what extent a tissue is damaged.
We discuss two methods to include such damage estimates in the
simulations. The webinar will conclude with a live demonstration
showing how easy it is to simulate this class of problem with
COMSOL Multiphysics.
