摘要 |
A treatment of atherosclerosis by the application of external electromagnetic energy capable of the generation of heat and biophysical alterations in any electric or magnetic dipole present or capable of being induced within the atherosclerotic plaque and the cells contained therein. This process allows for the selective treatment of the atherosclerotic plaque without damaging the normal blood vessel by the compartmentalized alteration of biophysical and/or structural properties within the atherosclerotic lesion.
