MAGNETIC FIELD GENERATING DEVICE AND METHOD OF GENERATING AND APPLYING A MAGNETIC FIELD FOR TREATMENT OF SPECIFIED CONDITIONS

摘要

A magnetic field generator device (11) includes a signal generator (213)capable of operating within predetermined parameters. An attenuator (201) isconnectedto the signal generator (213) and to Helmholtz coils (13) to transmit, andattenuate thesignal from the generator (213) to the coils (13) to generate a predetermineddesiredmagnetic field. A method of treating patients having numerous conditionsprovides forsubjecting the patients, patient portions and/or targets therein, to themagnetic fieldswhich are set in accordance with the characteristics of the patient, patientportions, and/ortarget to be treated.
