The interactions between electromagnetic signals and biomedical systems lead to safety considerations for medical devices and patients. In this talk, we will present some recent investigations on the EMC/EMI issues related to these scenarios. In particular, we will discuss (1) safety evaluation for pregnant woman under walk-through metal detector, (2) thermal and temperature evaluation of pregnant woman models under MRI RF coil, (3) effects of implantable devices within human subject models under MRI coils, and (4) the interactions between vehicular mounted antenna and bystanders with implantable medical devices..
