Abstract: A radiation heating system that includes at least two orientated radiation emitting elements that emit at least two radiation beams. There is a treated region of interference of the at least two radiation beams emitted by the at least two radiation emitting elements. The system also includes at least one nanoparticle comprised in the interference region.

Abstract: Magnetic nanoparticles for use in a magnetic hyperthermia therapeutic treatment, prophylactic treatment, cosmetic treatment or diagnosis method, wherein the magnetic nanoparticles are administered to a body part of an individual and the body part is exposed to a magnetic field or radiation oscillating at a high frequency and at a medium and/or low frequency, wherein the high frequency is 1 MHz at the most, the medium frequency is lower than the high frequency, and the low frequency is lower than the high frequency and lower than the medium frequency when it is present.

Abstract: A cryo-system for treating a body part of an individual by cryotherapy, which includes two parts. The first part is either i) a cryo-probe suitable for internal cooling, which includes a penetrating segment in communication with a cryogen source and is at least smaller than 1/10th of the body part's biggest volume and/or at least one dimension smaller than 1 cm or ii) a cryo-probe suitable for external cooling, which includes a non-penetrating segment in communication with a cryogen source. The second part is either i) an assembly of at least two nanoparticles bound to each other or associated with each other via binding or associating material or ii) at least one nanoparticle, which includes iron and at least one other metal than iron. The assembly of at least two nanoparticles or the at least one nanoparticle may be cooled by the cryo-probe or by switching on the cryo-probe.

Abstract: A method for removing at least one impurity from metal-based nanoparticles, including at least two heating steps. During step 1, the temperature of the nanoparticles is increased to a temperature T1, and is then maintained at T1 during a heating time that is included between 1 second and 20 years, where T1 is included between 50° C. and 300° C. During step 2, the temperature of the nanoparticles is increased to a temperature T2, and is then maintained at T2 during a heating time that is included between 1 second and 20 years, where T2 is included between 300° C. and 600° C.
