Table 2.
Averaged values for the blood content, the average blocking temperature (TB), coercive force (Bc) and the remanent saturation magnetization (MRS) with ±95% confidence limits (in parentheses) from induced magnetization measurements as a function of temperature and hysteresis measurements at 5 and 300 K (corrected by freeze-dried weight of the sample). (The data are for eight meningiomas and eight hippocampal tissues, except for the Bc (300 K) and MRS (300 K), which are for 12 meningioma slices and six hippocampi slices.)
| tissue | blood content (mg mg−1 tissuefd) | TB (K) | Bc (5 K) (mT) | MRS (5 K)×10−4 (Am2 kg−1) | Bc (300 K) (mT) | MRS (300 K)×10−4 (Am2 kg−1) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| meningiomas | 0.10 (±0.060) | 11.7 (±0.4) | 23 (±10) | 3.9 (±2.3) | 8.4 (±1.8) | 1.42 (±0.990) |
| hippocampi | 0.02 (±0.009) | 10.9 (±0.4) | 34 (±10) | 2.4 (±0.6) | 7.7 (±1.4) | 0.07 (±0.007) |
