News Academy of Engineering Sciences A.M. Prokhorov Annotation << Back Medical applications of magnetic nanoparticles V.N.Nikiforov Review is devoted to medical applications of magnetic nanoparticles. Competitive advantage of nanoparticles is a relatively safe range of magnetic materials, for example iron oxides Medical applications of magnetic nanoparticles have been possible, as well as many other potential applications in biomedicine, as a result of exploration and discovery of some unique physical properties of magnetic nanoparticles. We consider applications such as magnetic separation, magnetic hyperthermia, magnetic targeted delivery in medicine, magnetic resonance tomography (MRT). Key words: magnetic nanoparticles, magnetic liquid hyperthermia, magnetic resonance imaging. Contacts: Е-mail: nvn@lt.phys.msu.ru Pp. 23-34.
