Abstract
The present report is on the recent progress of the development of Magnetic Induction Heating (MIH) for treating tumors by electromagnetic energy, namely, hyperthermia or ablation. New concept of system design and new material usage are introduced in the recent published results. The theoretic concept, previous study in literature and constant challenge of MIH are reviewed and discussed. Some animal experimental results are presented as well.
