TLDR
Nanotechnology provides a novel and original solution with magnetic hyperthermia, which is based on the use of magnetic nanoparticles to remotely induce local heat when a radiofrequency magnetic field is applied, provoking a temperature increase in those tissues and organs where the tumoral cells are present.

Induced tissue cell death by magnetic nanoparticle hyperthermia for cancer treatment: an in silico study

TL;DR: In this article, the authors simulate magnetic hyperthermia process on a mathematical phantom model representing cancer tumor and its surrounding healthy tissues, where the temperature distribution throughout the phantom model is obtained by solving the bio-heat equations and the consequent cell death amount is calculated using correlations between the local temperature and the cell death rate.
