PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an MRI treatment system capable of performing the cancer treatment by hyperthermia, and performing determination and confirmation of the effect of treatment substantially at the same time. SOLUTION: The MRI treatment system consists of an MRI apparatus 1 and a resonance circuit resonant with an RF magnetic field of the MRI apparatus to generate heat. The resonance circuit constitutes an internal implant device 10 which can be implanted in vivo to be brought into contact with cancerous cells heat-transmissibly. The temperature of the surface of the implant device is increased at least to 42°C with the heat generated from the resonance circuit. COPYRIGHT: (C)2005,JPO&NCIPI
