electrocoagulation
n.
(Medicine) hardening or destruction of tissue through the application of an electrical current
Electrocoagulation
Electrocoagulation is also known as Radio Frequency Diathermy or Short Wave Electrolysis. A fine wire probe or other delivery mechanism is used to transmit
radio waves to
tissues near the probe. Molecules within the tissue are caused to vibrate which lead to a rapid increase of the temperature, causing
coagulation of the
proteins within the tissue, effectively killing the tissue. At higher powered applications, full
desiccation of tissue is possible.
