PhD Position in MSCA ETN PETER - ESR12: EMI-Resilient Medical Display Systems for Surgical-, Diagnostic Imaging- and Modality Applications

This PhD research concerns the study of Electro-Magnetic risk management for medical display systems. The intention is to develop and use a new EM-risk analysis methodology based on own research and research results of other PETER-ESRs, to complete and optimize Barco's existing Design-for-EMC process, to make it compliant with the relevant requirements of IEC 60601-1-2:2014 Ed.4 and to test it on medical display systems. By completing this research, we can apply a more robust and novel “risk-based” approach instead of the traditional “rule-based” one which doesn’t fit current- and future complex high-tech environmental conditions and hence will be able to reveal, to qualify and to quantify the potential EM-induced hazards and their mitigations in real life and improve the performance and safety of medical display systems.
