A device for localized diathermy which also includes the potential for simultaneous localized radiation therapy. The device includes tubular element 3 of electrically conductive material in the form of a woven braid. An electrical insulator S is positioned adjacent and abutting the element 3 such that the diathermy treatment associated with electrical current passing through the element 3 is localized to that portion of the element which is uninsulated. Preferably at least one radioactive isotope 7 is positioned within the uninsulated portion of the element such that both the diathermy and the radiation are simultaneously localized. <IMAGE> |
