Stanford scientists develop small superconducting magnet for cancer treatment
A Stanford Linear Accelerator Center team reports a compact 6 by 8 inch superconducting magnet that can dry up tumors and seal weakened vessels from outside the body. Used to destroy tongue and brain tumors by cutting off blood supply, it could replace risky skull surgery and aneurysm repair methods. The device uses a niobium tin alloy with an iron core, cooled by liquid helium, and connected via a vacuum insulated line.
