Description

The heating mechanism and influencing factors of magnetite particles in a 63 kHz alternating magnetic field and 7 kA/m were studied. The results from in vivo heating experiments suggest that magnetite particles can generate enough energy to heat tumor tissue and perform effective hyperthermia. A novel model for predicting power losses has been proposed
