With the development and growing popularity of modern appliances, including MRI in the hospitals, the potential impact of magnetic fields on human health is invoking increasing concerns. At the same time, SMF has been used in the clinical treatment of tumors and other diseases for decades. However, there are still some reservations and uncertainties about these treatments, which are largely due to the differential biological effects reported in the literature. These experimental inconsistencies are mainly caused by variations such as different magnetic field types, intensities, treatment time as well as biological samples examined. This volume will help clarify some dilemmas in this field and encourage further investigations in order to achieve a better understanding of the biological effects of SMF, aiming for a rational application of SMF in clinical therapy in the near future. The book is useful for scientists doctors, and students who are interested in magnetic fields and life sciences. 606 $aCancer research 606 $aCell biology 606 $aCancer Research$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/B11001 606 $aCell Biology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L16008 615 0$aCancer research. 615 0$aCell biology. 615 14$aCancer Research. 615 24$aCell Biology. 676 $a614.5999 700 $aZhang$b Xin$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0689025 702 $aYarema$b Kevin$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 702 $aXu$b An$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910253909503321 996 $aBiological Effects of Static Magnetic Fields$91993954 997 $aUNINA
