The induced currents J into the body exposed to low frequency magnetic field of electrical device are computed by Finite Element Method, by using an anatomic 3D model of the body obtained from the Visible Human Project. "Punctual" values of J onto the finite element nodes and averaged values onto 1cm3, are compared for various tissues, in order to assess the compliance with the ICNIRP guidelines. Particular attention is devoted to method calculation of average induced current.
