Transcranial magnetic stimulation system and methods
A transcranial magnetic stimulation device in accordance with embodiments of the present invention comprises a head mount for disposition on a head of a patient and configured with a plurality of attachment points, a plurality of magnetic assembly devices connected to the plurality of attachment points, a given magnetic assembly device equipped with an actuator device to actuate a magnet, is addressable, and configured to receive a control signal addressed to the given magnetic assembly device, and a processor having a memory and configured by program code. The processor is configured to: select one or more treatment protocol units, generate a control signal using at least information contained in the selected treatment protocol units, energize at least one magnetic assembly device over a period of time to cause the magnet to actuate according to the control signal, and monitor the patient response to energizing to addressable actuator.
Therapeutic magnetic device comprising magnetite [Fe3 O4] featuring a magnetic circuit
A magnetic therapeutic device is provided, comprising a non-electrically conductive strand and a plurality of magnetic beads. Each bead has a hole through its center (“bead hole”) and has a North pole edge and a South pole edge forming a magnetic field parallel to the bead hole. The plurality of beads are in a linear touching arrangement in which the North pole edge of a first bead touches the South pole edge of a second bead, the North pole edge of the second bead touches the South pole edge of a third bead, and continuing until the North pole edge of a next-to-last bead touches the South pole edge of a last bead and the North pole edge of the last bead touches the South pole edge of first bead, thereby completing a magnetic circuit.
Polymer-iron oxide nano-complex, uses thereof and preparation method thereof
The present disclosure relates to a polymer-iron oxide composite nanoparticle, a polymer-iron oxide composite nanoparticle including a silica coating layer coated on the surface of the polymer-iron oxide composite nanoparticle, a DNA-containing polymer-iron oxide composite nanostructure including DNA attached on the silica coating layer, a method of preparing the same and a method of controlling expression of a gene.
Electro-magnetic stimulation device
An electro-magnetic stimulation device that alleviates the pain felt by a user when the device is placed on the user's body part that requires pain mitigation. The electro-magnetic stimulation device comprises of a leather chamois, a 99.99% led free copper plate that is attached to the leather chamois, a plurality of staggered magnetically connected magnets that are attached to the 99.99% led free copper plate, and an ionic solution that hydrates the leather chamois.
Magnetic therapy devices and related methods
The present disclosure provides a magnetic therapy device. The therapy device includes a body having a holding portion and a mounting portion. The holding portion is adapted to be held by a user for maneuvering the therapy device to access a treatment area on a skin of the user and the mounting portion is attached the holding portion. Further, the therapy device has at least one hollow pin mounted to the mounting portion. The at least one hollow pin encloses at least one magnet, with the magnetic field of the magnet extending outside of the hollow pin to impart magnetic flux onto a treatment area of a patient.
Systems and methods for the treatment of pelvic disorders including magnetic particulates
Systems and methods of localizing or delivery cells, biologics and/or drugs to a specific target area to treat pelvic health disorders are provided. A treatment composition including cells, biologics and/or drugs are associated with magnetic particulates, and the positioning of these materials is facilitated through use of a magnetic field-generating device that is configured to be placed on or into a pelvic anatomical structure. Certain embodiments directed to the treatment of ED in male patients can include a cell based therapy system.
Transscleral drug delivery
Magnetic drug-loaded polymeric particles are used in a transscleral drug delivery method. In the synthesis process of the aforementioned magnetic drug-loaded polymeric particles, therapeutic agents, along with a magnetic agent are encapsulated in a polymer. The aforementioned magnetic drug-loaded particles can be placed near the outer surface of the sclera, and then a magnetic field can be applied in front of the eye to pull these magnetic drug-loaded particles to the outer surface of the sclera, where these particles adhere to the outer surface of the sclera and thus, the orbital clearance of the particles is eliminated or reduced.
Head-mountable adjustable devices for generating magnetic fields
Helmets for applying a magnetic field to the head of a subject, comprising: a housing comprising a concave surface configured to receive a portion of the head of the subject; a motor coupled to one or more of: a first permanent magnet via a first axle along a first axis of rotation, wherein the first axle drives movement of the first magnet; a second magnet via a second axle along a second axis of rotation wherein the second axle drives movement of the second magnet; and a third magnet via a third axle along the third axis of rotation wherein the third axle drives movement of the third magnet, wherein the axes are parallel; and a fit mechanism comprising a adjuster coupled to the first magnet, wherein movement of the adjustor moves the first magnet independently of the second or the third magnet.
