ABSTRACT:
A wide bandwidth multifrequency direct contact type microwave physiotherapeutic apparatus for replacing acupuncture therapy in medical and hygenic practice is provided. The apparatus comprises a microwave generator with a multifrequency output varying within a range of 100-3,000 MHz, and an applicator made up of an inner conductor and an outer conductor, both of which maintain direct contact with skin during treatment. The outer conductor also serves as a screening structure. The conductors are shaped to ensure a good impedance match between the applicator and the human body and to avoid microwave leakage to the environment.
