Development and Testing of a New Instrument for Researching on Cancer Treatment Technologies Based on Magnetic Hyperthermia

A power electronics circuit allows the generation of high-frequency magnetic field that can be used to increase the temperature of cancer cells previously invaded with the magnetic nanoparticles. The circuit designed for this purpose is a high-frequency phase-shift inverter implemented with SiC devices and natural zero voltage switching. The inductive load has been optimized to increase as much as...
