Default Re: "High Frequency Therapeutic Apparatus".

Coincidence. A couple of weeks ago I nearly started a thread about diathermy machines.
The reason was that back in the early 90s, at a radio rally, I was approached by two students (medical physics??) asking if I knew where they could obtain an old diathermy machine from early 50s to enable resurrection of experiments but with new procedures. They told me about the fact that it seemed certain diseases had cells that resonated to the point of destruction at specific frequencies. However, they could not replicate this with modern equipment, hence needing the old gear to see if it had any special effect. If modern technology had missed something even. I think they were maybe from a Northern university.
I have occasionally wondered just what they were up to and how they got on.
Now, I think I know, due solely to this thread!
