...It consists of a high-frequency current generator, a metal part that directs the current to the living body, and a return electrode that collects the current from the living body. The treatments that can be performed with an electric scalpel are (1) electrodesiccation, (2) electrocoagulation, and (3) electrocuting, all of which utilize the effect of the heat generated by the high frequency to coagulate and denature proteins in the living body. Only electrodesiccation does not use a return electrode, and therefore tumors on the surface of the body are carbonized without current flowing through the living body. *Some terminology explanations that mention "electrocoagulation" are listed below.

…高周波電流発生装置と,これを導出して生体に通じさせる金属部および生体から電流を回収する対極板から成る。電気メスによって行える処置は,(1)電気乾燥electrodesiccation,(2)電気凝固electrocoagulation,(3)電気切開electrocuttingで,いずれも高周波が発生する熱によって生体のタンパク質が凝固変性する作用を利用している。電気乾燥だけは対極板を用いず,したがって生体に電流が流れない状態で体表の腫瘍などを炭化させる。… ※「electrocoagulation」について言及している用語解説の一部を掲載しています。 出典|株式会社平凡社世界大百科事典 第2版について | 情報 |
