Abstract
Provided herein are methods, devices and compositions to conductively or to inductively fix substrates, including tissues, using electromagnetic energy. Also provided is a method of controlling the fixing process via feedback monitoring of a property of the composition and/or of the electromagnetic energy used.
Claims17
A method of treatment for one or more substrates in an individual, comprising:
- securing said substrate(s) proximal to a susceptor, wherein said substrate is intact and said susceptor is a dissociable ion, or a mixture of dissociable ions;
- applying radiofrequency energy that generates a magnetic field to said substrate(s) or to said susceptor or to a combination thereof to inductively generate heat therein;
- affixing said substrate(s) via said heat thereby effecting treatment;
- and
- controlling the affixing of said substrate(s) via feedback monitoring of a property of said susceptor, said energy or a combination thereof.
