Abstract

This chapter lists current evidence (from molecular level, cellular level, animal level to patient level) and some potential mechanisms for the effects of static magnetic field (SMF) on cancer inhibition. The prospective applications of SMF alone or in combination with chemotherapy drugs, pulsed magnetic field (PMF) as well as radiotherapy in cancer treatment are also discussed.
