Abstract
MTDDS is an innovative treatment modality to completely tumor remission with no negative side effect. In this method functionalize magnetic nanoparticles are designed as the drug carrier to get the specific target in the body. Anticancer agents are bounded to magnetite nanoparticles with biocompatible starch coating suspended in the fluid. Now if they are injected intra-arterially near the target volume, they would be trapped at the target region via a local applied magnetic field with the high gradient near the target site. In this paper we have evaluated some nanoparticle trajectories with different size in order to evaluate the effect of the size on the efficiency of the magnetic drug targeting system.
