Abstract
In principle, biocompatible, wireless nanotransducers might be useful for many in vivo biomedical applications such as hyperthermia, thermal ablation, targeted drug delivery, and in vivo monitoring of physiological parameters. In this article, we theoretically study the possibility of applying ring-shaped wireless Joule nanoheaters as possible nanovectors for targeted drug delivery, hyperthermia, and thermal ablation. This examination may offer an approach for guiding practical experiments.
