使用微波装置将关节加热至高温可以抑制滑膜组织的代谢活动，并使抗炎药物更好地渗透到关节腔中。为了测量局部热疗的温度分布，使用特殊的涂抹器通过 915 MHz 微波电源加热 8 只兔子的后关节。加热后关节腔、软骨、肌肉和皮肤的温度分别为44.0+/-2.8℃、36.1+/-3.8℃、39.6+/-2.3℃和35.2+/-1.5℃。唯一显着的温度升高记录在加热的关节腔中（p 小于 0.01）。这种新型微波装置可以成为治疗关节疾病的治疗工具，因为它的优点是仅加热目标器官（例如滑膜），同时不影响邻近组织。
Heating the joint to high temperatures using a microwave device may inhibit metabolic activity of the synovial tissue and enable higher penetration of antiinflammatory drugs into the joint cavity. To measure the temperature distribution of local thermotherapy, the hind joints of eight rabbits were heated by a 915 MHz microwave power source, using a special applicator. Temperatures of 44.0 +/- 2.8C, 36.1 +/- 3.8C, 39.6 +/- 2.3C, and 35.2 +/- 1.5C were measured after heating in the joint cavity, cartilage, muscle, and skin, respectively. The only significant increase in the temperature was recorded in the heated joint cavity (p less than 0.01). This new microwave device can be a therapeutic tool in treating joint diseases because of its advantage of heating the target organ only, eg, synovium, while sparing the adjacent tissues.
