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
