I ran across an antique medical device labeled a Portable Diatherm. I
consists of two typewriter size cases and appears to be an RF type
diathermy machine. From what I can gather it uses RF to generate
localized heating in the tissues and is used for healing. It has a
variable capacitor adjustment like you would see on an old radio, an
output meter and three things that might be spark gap gaps (?). 
Anyone know anything about diathermy machines? Is there any value to
trying to get this one to work? Would it be any better than IR LEDs?
Thanks,
     Steve
