An electromagnetic thermotherapeutic apparatus includes: a plurality of needle units respectively having head portions and needle portions; a base unit having a base plate that is formed with a plurality of first through holes, and a base pad that is formed with a plurality of second through holes, the needle portions of the needle units removably extending through the second and first through holes, the head portions of the needle units abutting against the base pad; a temperature monitor disposed between the base plate and the base pad; an upper unit disposed above the base pad and abutting against the head portions; and a clamp unit clamping and pressing the base unit against the upper unit.

Electromagnetic thermotherapeutic apparatus

An electromagnetic thermotherapeutic system is adapted to treat a biological tissue and includes an electromagnetic thermotherapeutic apparatus and a high frequency induction heating circuit unit. The apparatus includes a needle assembly and a temperature monitor. The needle assembly is adapted to be inserted in the biological tissue and includes a flexible and bendable needle seat and a plurality of ferrous needles attached to the needle seat and having needle tips extending in a direction away from the needle seat. The temperature monitor is connected to the needle assembly. The high frequency induction heating circuit unit has an induction coil capable of producing an electromagnetic field to induce currents in the ferrous needles and to thereby heat the ferrous needles.
