Ultrashort wave diathermy is a type of electrotherapy that works with currents with a frequency of 433.92 MHz.
It has a good depth effect and the heat load on the skin is less than that of short wave diathermy. The source is an electronic oscillating circuit with a suitable high-frequency amplifier.
