Treatment apparatus includes a plurality of coils configured to generate time-varying magnetic fields that induce electric fields within a subject. In one example, electric field strengths of at least 1 V/cm are produced in brain tissues exhibiting Glioblastoma Multiforme (GBM). Fields are applied based on computer-assisted modeling using electromagnetic characteristics of the brain, and tissue locations identified as exhibiting disease using imaging data. A head mounted assembly of coils can be used for convenient, portable treatment. |
