Selective resolution of plaques and treatment of Atherosclerosis by biophysical alteration of “cellular” and “intracellular” properties

Abstract Presenting a totally new approach to the effective treatment of Atherosclerosis through the alteration of biophysical properties both "intracellularly" and "extracellularly." The experimental data is preliminary but the results obtained indicate that by allowing the atherosclerotic lesions to take up the magnetically excitable submicron particles and then applying an external alternating electro-magnetic field, the atherosclerotic lesions may be selectively resolved without damaging normal blood vessels. This concept suggests many areas of investigation since there are a variety of means of biophysically altering the atherosclerotic plaques, and many substances may be utilized to enhance the process. This new technology and this initial experimentation introduces a "new era" in the effective treatment of Atherosclerosis.
