Abstract
A system and method for heating cells surrounding metallic implants in living beings. The system includes a metallic implant within the living being, surrounded by the cells to be heated, an induction coil having an aperture sufficiently large to accommodate a portion of the living being containing the metallic implant, and an RF generator coupled to the coil to apply an electric RF signal thereto, the RF signal ranging in frequency from 10 kilohertz to 10 megahertz. The metallic implant is inductively heatable by the application of the RF signal to the induction coil.
