SHORT WAVE DIATHERMY – PRELIMINARY REPORT

FRANK HAMMOND KRUSEN, M.D. · 1939

Ultra-short waves showed no selective temperature or electromagnetic effects on staphylococci and streptococci in vitro across various media and exposure times up to eight and a half hours. Clinical measurements during pelvic treatment found no pronounced heat effect in the bladder, vagina, or rectum despite noticeable skin heating and patient sensations of heat. Fire hazards were documented when electrode insulation burst into flame and when cables contacted each other, burning a patient and a technician.

New Experimental Methods Applicable to Ultra-Short Waves

G. C. Southworth · 1936

The experimental waveguide was 12.9 em in diameter. The waveguide diameter was varied from 12.3 am to 10 qm and back to 12.3 am to suppress a component without extensively attenuating the desired curve. A resonant cavity consisting of inductance and capacitance could serve as a tuned circuit for an oscillator and as an impedance matching device. The method measured the dielectric constant and absorption factors of water and detected absorption bands in gases such as ammonia.

THE EFFECTS OF UHF RADIO FIELDS ON RETENTION IN A VERBAL LEARNING TASK

BYNUM, James Arthur · 1936

Twenty-four male university students underwent a test with a 1000 MHz centimeter wave UHF field at 10 mW/cm2. The experiment used an interpolated learning paradigm with word association groups. After four days of practice memorizing nonsense syllables, subjects were divided and each received four experimental trials. One hour after original learning was complete, the total number of correctly recalled responses was measured. The study reported no significant differences between irradiated and non-irradiated groups.
