Blood-specific whole-body electromagnetic hyperthermia.

Abstract
On the basis of the physical properties of magnetic fluids a new technique of whole-body hyperthermia is proposed. Subdomain dextran stabilized magnetite particles injected into the blood-stream can be efficiently heated using an external high-frequency magnetic field, which allows rapid and controllable delivery of heat to the patient's blood, which may be useful for the treatment of cancer and AIDS.
