[Use of permanent magnets and magnetic fluids in experimental oncology].

The use of permanent magnets and magnetic fields (magnetic fluids and magnetic suspensions) alone or in complex with the antitumour compounds for the treatment of malignancies of various localizations is considered. Methods and forms of the use of permanent magnets are discussed. It is concluded that permanent magnets (as magnetic suspensions and magnetic fluids) used alone, in complex with chemical substances or in combination with other affecting factors (the temperature rise) induce a considerable regression of the tumour. Besides, permanent magnets may promote an increase of the antitumour drug concentration in the tissue of the diseased organ.
