Abstract

A magnetic system for treating tissue using magnetic coils connected to a pulse generator is provided. The magnetic system can include a power supply, microcontroller, and magnetic coil pair. The magnetic system can be incorporated into garments, bedding, furniture, or the like. The microcontroller can produce square-wave logic pulses to form trapezoidal-wave pulse generator signals for transmission to the magnetic coil pair. The magnetic coil pair can form magnetic trapezoidal-wave pulses for treatment of tissue. A slew rate of the magnetic trapezoidal-wave pulses can be controlled in a range from twenty kilogauss/second to five megagauss/second.
