Abstract
A method of killing cells of a targeted cell type in a patient body that utilizes nanoparticles () having a first portion (), which when exposed to a target portion () of a targeted cell type (), binds to the target portion and a second portion (A), joined to the first portion, and comprised of a low resistivity material. The nanoparticles are introduced into a contact area where they contact cells of the targeted cell type. Contemporaneously, the contact area is exposed to a varying magnetic field of insufficient strength to increase the temperature of any part of the patient body by more than ten degrees Celsius, but which creates a current () at the nanoparticles sufficient to disrupt function of the targeted cell type.
