SYSTEM FOR INDUCING AN ELECTRIC FIELD IN A CONDUCTING MEDIUM, ESPECIALLY FOR MEDICAL APPLICATIONS

The subject of the invention is a system for inducing an electric field in a conducting medium, especially for medical applications. The system according to the invention induces a flow of electric current through objects located in the conducting medium, which may have shapes that are complex or change with time, and has a medical application consisting in a complete or partial nerve impulse block. The system for inducing an electric field in the conducting medium comprises at least two component cores, whose magnetization is configured to be changed independently by a change of electric currents flowing through windings that are wound around them, and a torus-shaped encasement whose outer surface is electrically non-conductive, wherein the component cores are situated inside the encasement and encircle its opening, and the encasement is situated inside the conducting medium.
