Description

APPARATUS OF MEASURING AND DIAGNOSING DEEP PART OF BODY AND DIATHERMY DEVICE CONNECTED THE APPARATUS}

The present invention relates to a device for diagnosing a deep state of the body by using an electrical signal, and more particularly, to a body depth measurement diagnostic device and a medical diathermy connected thereto.

Recently, as the natural environment is polluted and life patterns are westernized, various skin diseases such as atopic dermatitis are increasing. The skin consists of the epidermis and the lower dermis. Since each person's skin characteristics (dry, oily, etc.) are different, it is necessary to manage the skin after diagnosing the skin's characteristics. In particular, the condition of the body's lower body under the epidermis is an indication of the health of each individual and requires scientific management.

On the other hand, electrotherapy is a method of treating a disease by directing current through the human body, also known as electrotherapy. Electrotherapy used for medical treatment includes three types of electricity, namely electric current, electric response, and alternating current electricity. The function and use vary depending on the waveform of frequency, the strength of current, and the application area.

Recently, a lot of high frequency electrotherapy and low frequency deep diathermy have been developed and used according to the applied frequency. Low frequency electrotherapy uses a frequency of several Hz to 1,000 Hz, and high frequency electrotherapy uses a frequency of 10,000 Hz or more. .

When high-frequency current is energized in the human body, deep heat is generated in the skin tissue of the human body. When high-frequency electrical energy is applied, the molecules constituting the tissue vibrate and rub each other when the direction of the current changes, which causes rotational motion and distortion. This is because biofever is generated by collision motion.

Treatment with high-frequency currents, unlike other current forms, can heat certain parts of body tissues without stimulating sensory and motor neurons and without causing discomfort or muscle contraction in the human body.

Deep heat generated by the high frequency increases the temperature of the tissue, thereby promoting the function of the cells and increasing the blood flow, and so on.
