Research fields
Biological effects of magnetic fields are classified into three categories; the effects of (1) time-varying magnetic fields, (2) DC or static magnetic fields, and (3) multiplication of both static fields and other energy such as light and radiation. For each category, a different strategic approach is required and bioimaging tools such as the superconducting quantum interferometer device (SQUID) play an indispensable role to shed light on the biomagnetic effects. Time-varying magnetic fields produce eddy currents which stimulate excitable tissues at low frequencies and magnetic brain stimulation can be realized by this effect. Biological effects of static magnetic fields have been poorly understood. Recognition of the role of diamagnetic, paramagnetic and ferromagnetic materials in the body may help in unravelling the underlying mechanisms.
