Abstract :
Reports on pilot clinical research projects executed to: (i) obtain an understanding of how such projects should be carried out within the Australian system of medical research; and (ii) replicate findings of other scientists reporting on therapeutic benefits of static magnets (medical magnets) and Pulsating Electromagnetic Fields (PEMF). The authors´ research studies indicate promising results from the application of medical magnets and PEMF in the cases reported here
