Abstract
An active RF or microwave bandage, that incorporates any of various disclosed configurations of pliable planar microstrip or slotline antenna structures, is conformable to a selected area of the skin of a patient for use in therapeutically treating soft tissue of the patient underlying the selected area with pulsed electromagnetic field (PEMF) energy of a given frequency radiated from the planar antenna structure. The PEMF energy is supplied to the planar antenna structure by means including a PEMF generator (which generator may be a miniaturized portable generator employing a battery power supply that permits the patient being treated to be ambulatory).
