Embodiment Construction

[0122] Figure 1A and B show a first embodiment of a radiation device 10 for photodynamic therapy. The device 10 of the first embodiment is configured for use in photodynamic therapy of the cervix. The device 10 comprises a flexible housing 1 . The outer part 7 of the housing is generally frusto-conical in shape and tapers outwardly from the front to the rear of the device. The outer portion 7 is elastic such that in use the outer portion 7 presses against the vaginal wall to firmly hold the device 10 in place.

[0123] A lamp system 12 is sealed inside the housing 1 . This system 12 includes an array of LEDs 5 and a control circuit 6 . This control circuit 6 will be discussed in detail below. It provides power to the LEDs 5 so that in use these LEDs 5 will illuminate the cervix.

[0124] The front end of the housing 1 forms a treatment surface 2 . This treatment surface 2 is shaped to cover the cervical opening in use, thereby ensuring that the illumination from the LED...

Abstract

Radiation device for insertion into a hole in the body to provide photodynamic therapy or diagnosis, said device comprising: a housing 1, 21, 31, 51, 61, 71 adapted to be fully inserted and secured in said hole , the housing 1, 21, 31, 51, 61, 71 surrounds the LED lamp system 5, 25, 35, 45, 54, 62, 72 and is the LED lamp system 5, 25, 35, 45, 54, 62 , 72 powered by a power source 41, 68, 78, wherein the device operates independently when located within the bore.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a radiation device for insertion into an orifice of the human body to provide photodynamic therapy or diagnosis of diseases, lesions and conditions thereof. Background technique [0002] An example of an orifice in the human body that is beneficial for photodynamic therapy is the female genital tract. Conditions affecting the female reproductive tract are discussed below. Similar conditions, or conditions corresponding to similar treatments, may arise in other orifices such as the rectum, ear or nose. [0003] Human papillomavirus (HPV) is a virus that can infect human skin and mucous membranes. More than one hundred different types of HPV have been identified. Some HPV species are transmitted through sexual activity and are pathogenic. HPV is considered the most common sexually transmitted infection in the United States. Hundreds of millions of women worldwide have been infected with HPV during their lifetime (app...
