Overview
Magnetic Nanoparticles for Medical Diagnostics was written to encourage members of the medical profession to join experts from other research fields in exploring the unique physical properties of magnetic nanoparticles for medical applications. It demonstrates the evolution from small groups of scientists fabricating magnetic sensors to multidisciplinary research on wide-ranging medical applications of magnetic nanoparticles, illustrating the regenerative and dynamic nature of this area of research. It covers topics such as magnetic probe and magnetic nanoparticles for sentinel lymph node biopsy; magnetic separation of endosomes, exosomes, mitochondria and autophagosomes using magnetic beads; fluorescent magnetic beads for medical diagnostics and magnetic hyperthermia using implant type heating mediators.

Author Information
Adarsh Sandhu came to Japan in 1985 after receiving a Monbusho Scholarship to study at the Tokyo Institute of Technology and University of Tokyo. Then, in 1986, after completing his doctoral thesis at the University of Manchester, UK, he joined Fujitsu Laboratories Ltd, Atsugi, Japan. In August 2002, Sandhu accepted a tenured position at the Quantum Nanoelectronics Research Centre, Tokyo Institute of Technology. Sandhu worked as Deputy Director of the Electronics-Inspired Interdisciplinary Research Institute (EIIRIS), Toyohashi University of Technology. Other responsibilities at Toyohashi include Presidential Advisor Head of International Public Relations. He is currently a member of the Department of Engineering Science Graduate School of Information and Engineering, University of Electro-Communications, Tokyo. Hiroshi Handa graduated from Keio University, School of Medicine, in 1972. He also received his MD and PhD there in 1976. He was appointed as Assistant Professor at the University of Tokyo in 1976. He then worked as a postdoctoral fellow at Massachusetts Institute of Technology under the supervision of Professor Philip A Sharp from 1978 to 1980. He was appointed as Associate Professor in 1984 at the University of Tokyo, and as Professor in 1991 at Tokyo Institute of Technology. Since 2012, he has been a Professor at Tokyo Medical University and an Emeritus Professor at Tokyo Institute of Technology.
