Influence of extremely low frequency magnetic fields on treatment of neuropathic pain. The disputable role of nitric oxide.

Keywords:

magnetostimulation, neuropathic pain, treatment, nitric oxide

Summary:

The magnetic field operation in the neuropathic pain therapy is attempted to be explained by cyclotron resonance phenomena known from magnetobiology, the influence of the magnetic field on calcium ion concentration, which are activates nitric oxide synthetase.
