Researchers used magnetic field to pull therapeutic nanoparticles deeper into tumors.

Magnetic nanoparticles could slow tumor growth far more than those not exposed to magnetic field.

Researchers say the technology might be used to haul therapeutics through cartilage cartilage to treat osteoarthritis.

The researchers are now working to learn if they can improve performance by building larger versions.

We envision that one day this technology could be broadly useful," Tsourkas said.
