Abstract

The malignant tissues, by the virtue of their expansion increased ionic movements producing magnetic fields of higher intensity than the benign ones. In our studies the biomagnetic activity of prostatic carcinomas was found lower compared to breast carcinomas. These results could be explained by the lower angiogenic activity of prostate carcinomas, in comparison to other malignancies. In this chapter we describe the probable diagnostic value of biomagnetic activity measurements in evaluating prostate lesions.
