Abstract :
Magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) have an ever increasing role in the medical world, particularly in thermal therapies (magnetohypertermia, ablation) for the treatment of cancer. These treatments would benefit of accurate monitoring of the temperature of the MNPs for optimal remedial conditions. It has been shown that the magnetic spectroscopy of nanoparticle Brownian motion (MSB), can be used to measure the temperature of MNPs.
