1. Apparatus for applying uni-polar magnetic energy to an anatomic region of interest located within the body of a patient, said apparatus comprising a housing, a coil, at least one set of focusing magnets, and a source of electrical energy, said coil being an electrically conductive helical member having a central longitudinal axis, said source of electrical energy being arranged when actuated for providing an electrical signal to said coil to produce a magnetic field having a first pole of a first polarity and a second pole of a second polarity, with said longitudinal axis extending through said poles and with lines of flux extending outward from said first pole, said at least one set of focusing magnets comprising at least two focusing magnets each having a first pole and a second pole, said first pole of each of said focusing magnets being of the same polarity as said first pole of said coil and being disposed adjacent said first pole of said coil on opposite sides of said longitudinal axis to distort lines of flux from said first pole and direct such lines of flux in a path extending generally parallel to said longitudinal axis for a substantial distance for impinging the anatomic region of interest in the body of the patient.
