  • Assessment of magnetic hyperthermia by applying a 100-kHz magnetic field to implanted granules.

    • Main Results:

    • The glass-ceramic exhibited high-saturation magnetization due to magnetite and wollastonite crystals.
    • It formed a Ca, P-rich layer and bonded tightly with bone within 8 weeks, unlike the parent glass.
    • Magnetic stimulation of glass-ceramic granules raised surrounding bone temperature above 42°C for 30 minutes.

    Conclusions:

    • This heat-generating bioactive glass-ceramic shows superior bone integration compared to non-crystallized glass.
    • Its magnetic properties enable localized hyperthermia, suggesting potential for bone tumor treatment.
    • The material holds promise for reinforcing bone tissue and therapeutic applications.
