DESCRIPTION:IEEE Switzernald chapter on AP/MTT/EMC is happy to invite you t
 o this DML Talk along with a visit to the &quot;Federal Institute of Methrology
  (METAS)&quot;.\n\nThe discription of talk by Dr. Giri is as follows:\n\nIn thi
 s presentation\, we review the medical uses of EM energy in both diagnosis
  and therapy. The EM spectrum ranging from DC to Gamma rays and beyond is 
 a vast natural resource that has been very valuable for humankind. With th
 e rapid advances of medical technology\, Radio Frequency (RF) techniques a
 re becoming increasingly popular for a variety of applications such as non
 -invasive diagnosis\, continuous monitoring of physiological data\, commun
 ication between implanted devices\, and communication to external devices.
  Therapeutic applications of EM energy can be broadly classified into two 
 groups as (1) conventional and (2) emerging therapies. Examples of convent
 ional therapies are: a) hyperthermia (thermal therapy)\, b) MRI\, c) X-ray
  and d) CT scan. In the emerging category are a) THz Imagery and b) implan
 table devices. Medical applications are possible at many frequencies such 
 as DC\, RF\, Microwave\, X rays and Gamma rays. In the past decade there h
 ave been some remarkable strides made by EM applications implemented in me
 dical technologies. This talk summarizes some significant developments wit
 h EMs in emerging medical technologies.\n\nCo-sponsored by: Swiss Federal
