Design and Medical Applications of a Platform for Image-Guided Non-Invasive Brain Delivery of Magnetic Particles

The paper states that the platform could be used as a device to drive magnetic nanoparticles to a specific target and then perform a physical task, like treating refractory sinusitis or intracranial aneurisms. The platform could be also used as a drug delivery device through magnetic carriers. Potential indications of the use of the new Platform as a drug -device are the following: treat deep brain tumors, Parkinson disease, addiction therapy and severe depression treatment. The Platform might be used simply as diagnostic imaging device for head diseases.
