Description

Magnetic fluid hyperthermia (MFH) is a new technique of tumor physiotherapies. It is an innovative concept, in which, a MFH treatment is performed on the area of tumor during MR targeted ferralia imaging. In the present paper, we summarized the basic conception of MFH, categories and characteristics of magnetic fluids, the treatment equipment and several magnetic fluids, the physics theory of magnetic fluid treatment, implant method and the application prospect of the targeted tumor treatment with MFH.
