The current approaches to cancer treatment, including surgery and high-energy beam irradiation, do not always give satisfactory results for a number of oncological neoplasms. One of the promising areas in oncology is the use of nanoparticles selectively heated by external action as agents for hyperthermia of some types of tumors. In this work, we performed selective heating of suspensions of silicon nanoparticles using a device for electromagnetic high-frequency therapy (UHF-60).
