Currently, safety of RF coils is often evaluated in part using computer simulations performed on a limited number of body models. In this work, we propose a method for the creation of body models that have a multitude of tissues and that closely matched the anatomy and orientation of a subjects being scanned. The method is currently automated and takes roughly 15 minutes to complete. Results are shown for the head region of two random subjects.
