RESISTANCE-TEMPERATURE CHARACTERISTIC CALCULATION METHOD, TREATMENT SYSTEM, AND RESISTANCE-TEMPERATURE CHARACTERISTIC CALCULATION PROGRAM

摘要

A treatment system 1 including: an energy applying unit which comprises a first heat resistor 13 having a linear resistance-temperature characteristic and a second heat resistor 17 having a self-regulating temperature characteristic where a first temperature is defined as the maximum temperature, the energy applying unit applying thermal energy generated in the first heat resistor 13 and the second heat resistor 17 to biological tissue; a resistance-temperature characteristic calculation section 332 that calculates a resistance temperature characteristic; and a resistance value measurement section 311 that measures the resistance value of the first heat resistor 13. The resistance-temperature characteristic calculation section 332 includes: a temperature setting section 333 which energizes the second heat resistor 17 and sets the second heat resistor 17 to the first temperature; and a characteristic calculation section 334 that calculates the resistance-temperature characteristic on the basis of the self-regulating temperature characteristic and the resistance value of the first heat resistor 13 to which heat from the second heat resistor 17 which is at the first temperature is transmitted.
