ELECTROMAGNETIC TECHNOLOGIES FOR HEALTH


Technology Readiness Level (TRL)

3÷5

Innovations and Benefits

The increasing development and spread of technologies based on electromagnetic fields leads to interesting perspectives for biomedical applications in the areas of clinical diagnostics and therapies (also known as theranostic). ENEA has multi-skill and high specialisation expertise necessary for the development, optimisation and quality control of new products and protocols: from in silico modelling to pre-clinical experimentation. Specifically, ENEA has realised an integrated platform (in silico tools and experimental systems) for technological development, predictive analysis and testing of electromagnetic devices for biomedical and theranostic applications.

Use

  • Development and testing of electromagnetic devices for biomedical and theranostic applications;
  • Support to definition of clinical protocols and treatment planning;
  • In silico modelling and predictive analysis;
  • Pre-clinical experimentation;
  • Non-destructive measurements and testing;
  • Quality control.

Applications and ongoing Activities

Support to the development and experimental characterization of a novel interstitial antenna for microwave thermal ablation – currently used in several hospitals all around world – in the framework of an industrial research project funded by FILAS-Regione Lazio.
Collaborations with Italian hospitals and biomedical factories for the development of theranostic devices and protocols for treatment planning.
