Period
This type of equipment used in 1940s- 1950s, and possibly later.
Canada
Presumably used in Canada as the donor is Wakefield Hospital, Quebec.
Function
Used to treat a variety of diseases by heating the tissues beneath the skin with an electric current.
Technical
Diathermy treatment involves producing heat within body tissues by passing a high frequency electrical current through the part. Because of the very high frequencies employed, there is no muscular or nervous reaction. (ref. 1) Short wave diathermy induces currents within tissue without metallic contact with skin. Insulated applicators are used, spaced away from skin, promoting safety, comfort & convenience.
