  • Cancer treatment method
    Patent number: 4106488
    Abstract: A treatment of cancer by the application of external electromagnetic energy capable of the generation of heat in intracellular particles to induce selective thermal death of cancer cells in living tissue. This process allows for the selective treatment of cancer cells in living tissue without damaging the normal cells.The process comprises introducing minute particles into the interior of the cells of living tissue. These particles being injected intravenously while suspended in an appropriate solution are of a size generally having a diameter of approximately 1 micron or less and are of a material with properties, such as ferromagnetic, paramagnetic, or diamagnetic, so as to be inductively heated when subjected to a high frequency alternating electro-magnetic field. Introducing the particles as described, the patient is thereafter subjected to an alternating electromagnetic field to inductively heat the particles sufficiently to raise the temperature of the cells by an increment of 8.0.degree. - 9.5.degree.
