ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for treating diseases such as a malignant tumor, lesions, etc., and for killing viruses, wherein microwaves between about 6 and 15 m in wavelength are irradiated within the patient's body. The intensity and direction of irradiation are controlled to assure a safe and optimum therapeutic effect within a short period of time. The irradiation devices are preferably arranged above and below the patient, and are reciprocally movable in the longitudinal direction of the patient. The heating temperature is set within the range of 37.degree. C. to 70.degree. C. A timer is provided for intermittent irradiation, and a temperature sensor is provided to sense the temperature in the patient's body, and to turn off the device or sound an alarm when the temperature exceeds a predetermined value.
