FERROFLUIDIC COOLING AND ACOUSTICAL NOISE REDUCTION IN MAGNETIC STIMULATORS

Abstract:

A ferrofluid chamber has a housing that is adapted to be coupled to a component that generates a magnetic field. The housing may be disposed around the component so as to insulate a noise-producing region of the component. The magnetic field may be of sufficient strength to stimulate anatomical tissue. In addition, a ferrofluid may be disposed within the housing for cooling the component.
