Abstract

This article makes an effort to explain physical aspects of low-dynamic magnetic field in the human tissue. The principles of electromagnetic induction in the muscle tissue as a typical example of parts of human body are briefly presented. The problems are indicated by modelling. One of the goals is to warn about different distribution of magnetic field in parts of body caused by metal implants. Another analyse introduces physical and energy differences among individual types of power sources of magnetic field and their dynamic behaviour.
