Magnetic field is a ubiquitous physical field. Humans have long
been aware that certain birds can use the Earth’s magnetic
field to navigate. Indeed, such phenomenon inspired people to
explore the biological effects of magnetic field and the underlying
Xin ZHANG and Junfeng WANG, Edsmechanism. The man-made ultra-high or ultra-weak magnetic
fields provide excellent experimental conditions for material
sciences and life sciences. Since the beginning of the 1990s,
magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has been widely introduced
as a stand-alone diagnostic technique in hospitals. As the image
quality of MRI is positively correlated with the strength of the
magnetic field, MRI instrument equipped with ever stronger
magnet has been built, from 1.5 to 3 Tesla and higher. There is Interdisciplinary Research of
an urgent need to understand the safety limit of the maximum
magnetic field strength on human health. Magnetic Fields and Life Sciences
This book mainly focuses on the progresses of inter-disciplinary
researches of high magnetic fields and life sciences by
researchers from mainland China. The topics covered can be
roughly divided into two major categories. One is to study the
effects of high magnetic fields on biological samples, such as
cell, humans and animals. The other is to utilize techniques that
based on high magnetic field to study biological questions, such
as using NMR (Nuclear Magnetic Resonance) and MRI (Magnetic
Resonance Imaging) in structural biology and medical imaging.
The researches about the biological effects of high magnetic fields
are very interesting and inspiring, but still at a very initial stage.
More studies are needed to promote the scientific development
of this field, and their potential applications in medicine.
