Abstract

Magnetic particle imaging (MPI) is a novel quantitative imaging technique using the nonlinear magnetization behavior of magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) to determine their local concentration. Magnetic fluid hyperthermia (MFH) is a promising non-invasive therapy using the heating effects of MNPs. MPI-MFH is expected to enable real-time MPI guidance, localized MFH, and non-invasive temperature monitoring, which shows great potential for precise treatment of cancer. In this review, we introduce the fundamentals of MPI and MFH and their applications in the treatment of cancer. Also, we discuss the challenges and prospects of MPI-MFH.
