1. A medical device for inducing electrical current within a patient'"'"'s body by creating a magnetic field through the body comprising:

  • first coil for placement in a treatment relation to a patient'"'"'s body;

    second coil for placement in a second treatment in relation to the patient'"'"'s body so that the first coil and second coil are in a generally flux-aiding relation to each other;

    driver circuitry for providing pulsed electrical energy to the first and second coils;

    control means operably connected to the driver circuitry for controlling the magnitude of the electrical energy;

    multiplexer means connected to the first coil and second coil and operably connected to the control means for selecting one coil; and

    the control means including means for indicating to the multiplexer means that one of the coils is selected for driving by the coil driver and the other of the coils is selected for sensing magnetic field induced by the other coil, and for automatically adjusting the magnitude of electrical energy produced by the driver circuitry based upon sensed magnetic field.
