Since the drugs used to kill cancer cells are just as toxic to neigh�boring healthy cells, researchers have long cov�eted a drug delivery method that tar�gets cancer cells alone, while bypassing the healthy ones. One of these methods uti�lizes func�tional Mag�netic Res�o�nance Imaging, or fMRI, to steer drug-??filled mag�netic nanopar�ti�cles directly to tumor masses where they can safely dis�charge their con�tents.
