Synonym(s): diathermal. diathermy (di'a-ther?me) [ dia- + thermo-] The therapeutic use of a high-frequency current to generate heat within some part of the body. The frequency is greater than the maximum frequency for neuromuscular response and ranges from several hundred thousand to millions of cycles per second. It is used to increase blood flow to specific areas. It should not be used in the acute stage of recovery from trauma.diathermaldiathermic (di'a-ther'mal) (di'a-ther'mik), adjective Synonym: endothermylaparoscopic ovarian diathermy Abbreviation: LOD Laparoscopic ovarian drilling.medical diathermyThe generation of heat within the body by the application of high-frequency oscillatory current for warming, but not damaging, tissues.short-wave diathermy Abbreviation: SWD Diathermy using wavelengths of 3 to 30 m. The most common frequency is 27.12 MHz. The heat may be applied in a continuous manner as a deep heat modality or pulsed to take advantage of the nonthermal effects of this form of radiation. surgical diathermyDiathermy of high frequency for electrocoagulation or cauterization.ThesaurusSeediathermy |
