Generators of radio waves for heating or industrial purposes, such as microwave ovens or diathermy equipment, are not usually called transmitters even though they often have similar circuits.

Diathermy is used by some as a synonym for electrosurgery but in other contexts diathermy means dielectric heating, produced by rotation of molecular dipoles in a high frequency electromagnetic field.

Surgically, the extreme heat that can be produced by diathermy may be used to destroy neoplasms, warts, and infected tissues, and to cauterize blood vessels to prevent excessive bleeding.

Beside regular consultancy, medicines and emergency attention, employees and students have access to facilities like the clinical tests, ECG, X-Ray, ultrasonic treatment, diathermy and Yoga.
36.
In medicine, the RF heating of body tissues, called diathermy, is used for muscle therapy Heating to higher temperatures, called hyperthermia therapy, is used to kill cancer and tumor tissue.
37.
For patients that have a surgically implanted Spinal Cord Stimulator ( SCS ) system, diathermy can cause tissue damage through energy that is transferred into the implanted SCS components resulting in severe injury or death.

Shigeru Nakajima, a younger brother of Yoji Ito and a scientist at the Japan Radio Company ( JRC ), was also investigating magnetrons, primarily for the medical dielectric heating ( diathermy ) market.

Shigeru Nakajima at Japan Radio Company ( JRC ) saw a commercial potential of these devices and began the further development and subsequent very profitable production of magnetrons for the medical dielectric heating ( diathermy ) market.

The idea was not entirely absurd; Tesla had noted the ability of high frequency alternating current to warm tissue in 1891, and a German physician had suggested using this for therapeutic uses in 1909, giving it the name diathermy.
