Abstract
Magnetic carbon nanostructures are hybrid materials containing magnetic and carbon (mainly sp2) nanoallotrope components conjugated in various configurations. Their potential applications in medicine including drug delivery systems, magnetic particle/fluid hyperthermia anti-cancer therapy and magnetic resonance imaging are reviewed.Keywords
