This paper studies induced electric fields and current densities for peripheral nerve stimulation (PNS) induced by breast gradient coils. The numerical calculations are based on an efficient, quasi-static, finite-difference (QSFD) scheme. The application of the human body to the calculations of induced current densities and electric fields from applied low frequency magnetic and electric fields is described. The spatial distributions of the induced electric field and their gradients are
