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.

In situ liquid transmission electron microscopy reveals self-assembly-driven nucleation in radiolytic synthesis of iron oxide nanoparticles in organic media.

TL;DR: In this paper , the early stages of the formation of iron oxide nanoparticles from iron stearate precursors were investigated by in situ liquid phase transmission electron microscopy (IL-TEM), and it was shown that fine control of the electron dose, and therefore of the local concentration of reactive iron species in the vicinity of the nuclei, enables controlling crystal growth and selecting the morphology of the resulting IR nanoparticles.
