The 187th Topical Symposium of the Magnetics Society of Japan / The 46th Topical Symposium of Nano-Bio Magnetics
Magnetic hyperthermia and magnetic nanoparticles – viewpoint of clinical medicine
Magnetic hyperthermia is expected to realize efficient heating of tumors by applied energy from outside of the body. Equipment including coils, power sources and circuits for clinical use, and design of material and structures for heating agents are subjects for a research issues in magnetics. Other than heating agents for hyperthermia, magnetic nanoparticles are attractive for various biomedical applications, e.g. clinically used contrast agents of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and nonviral carrier of gene delivery. In this symposium, recent studies on magnetic hyperthermia and magnetic nanoparticles are introduced from a viewpoint of clinical medicine. It is intended to find research direction of biomedical application and to clarify expected contribution of magnetics. The present status and future prospects of biomedical applications of magnetics are discussed. We look forward to your participation in this exciting event.
