Embodiment Construction

[0033] [33] In order to explain in detail the structure and operation of the imaging and treatment head according to the first embodiment of the present invention, reference is first made to FIGS. 1 , 2 and 3 . The overall structure is repeated in the third and fourth embodiments of Figures 6, 7 and 8, whereas the embodiments of Figures 4 and 5 do not include imaging components, only treatment components.

[0034] [34] The imaging and treatment head in Figs. 1-3 includes seven components, namely mounting body 1 , imaging component 2 , adapter 3 , treatment component 4 , air bag 5 , holding system 6 and cover 7 .

[0035] [35] Here the imaging section 2 is constituted by an echographic imaging probe, and the term "probe" is used in the following description to denote the imaging section. It should be understood, however, that such probes are not the only devices that can be used as imaging components. X-ray probes or IRM probes can also be used, the probes listed here are not ...

Abstract

The invention concerns a head for imaging and treating a living being's organ or tissue, in particular useful for treating prostate or thyroidal tumors, said head comprising imaging means (2), such as an ultrasound probe, for emitting waves or rays to provide an image representation of a tissue or organ to be treated, treating means (4) for locally treating said tissue or organ, the treating means being capable of emitting waves or rays for treating the tissue or organ. The invention is characterized in that the imaging means (2) are removably mounted on an adapter (3; 3') for positioning the imaging means (2) relative to the treating means (4).

Description

technical field [0001] [01] The present invention relates to an imaging and treatment head for an organ or tissue in a living body, which is particularly useful for treating various tumors, such as thyroid tumors, breast tumors or uterine tumors. The invention also relates to a method of manufacturing a component part of the imaging and therapy head. Accordingly, the present invention relates to the field of medical devices, more particularly to medical devices under ultrasound control, especially strong ultrasound medical devices. Focused Intense Ultrasound therapy is also known by the acronym HIFU (High Intensity Focused Ultrasound). [0002] [02] The treatment and imaging head of the present invention is intended to be mounted on an arm provided with a motor so as to be able to accurately move the imaging and treatment head in different directions. The head is also connected to the control and processing electronics cabinet and to a scanner such as an ultrasound scanner. ...
