摘要：

A number of Gd based compounds have been investigated for their potential for use in hyperthermia treatment of cancer. The use of magnetic nanoparticles for producing local heating via alternating magnetic fields in cancer affected areas of the body has been an object of numerous studies in recent years. Whereas most studies have focused on using Fe and Co based nanoparticles, we have investigated a number of Gd compounds and alloys for their possible applications in hyperthermia treatment of cancer. Our results suggest that several of these alloys exhibit desired properties for such applications and may have advantages over Fe and Co based alloys for such applications.
