Abstract

Our experience in the application of biomagnetism in gynaecologic oncology is presented. We provide a brief description of our research work in the investigation of biomagnetic activity in benign and malignant ovarian and breast diseases, and an evaluation of uterine myomas, providing a new approach of biomagnetism as a non invasive imaging modality for assessing gynaecologic tumours.
