Abstract

Intravenous administration of dextran-ferrite sol was used to amplify T2-weighed echo gradient (500/15) scanning MR images with visualization of the invasion margins of tumor cells into healthy tissues, along with macro-and micrometastases, in animals with lymphocytic leukemia and Ehrlich and Lewis carcinomas. Magnetohydrodynamic thermochemotherapy (MTCT) using a cyclophosphamide-containing magnetic fluid (saturation magnetization (Ms) 8.6 kA/m, pH 7.4, ζ + 13 mV) at 46°C for 30 min in an alternating magnetic field (0.88 MHz, 7.2 kA/m, 0.15 kW) with aspiration of necrotic material (ANM) produced regression of P388 tumors of volume ∼110 mm3 in BDF1 mice prior to metastasis by 40%, with an increase in lifetime (ILT) of 310%; in tumors of volume ∼330 mm3 after metastasis and MTCT-ANM with cyclophosphamide pretreatment, ILT was 220%.
