Description
An in vitro model was developed to study and demonstrate the potential and feasibility of magnetically targeted deposition of aerosols for potential applications in lung cancer treatment. Also, a numerical particle tracing model was developed to predict the targeting behavior of the in vitro system; the results from the numerical and experimental studies were in agreement
