Embodiment Construction

[0043] Description of the preferred embodiment

[0044] Specific examples of the present disclosure will be described with reference to the drawings. This disclosure may, however, be embodied in many different forms and should not be construed as limited to the examples set forth herein; rather, these embodiments are provided so that this disclosure will be thorough and complete, and will fully convey the scope of the disclosure to the art. Technical staff. Terms used in the detailed description of the examples shown in the drawings are not intended to limit the present disclosure. In the drawings, the same numerals denote the same elements.

[0045] The following description focuses on examples of devices, systems, and methods suitable for controlling thermal therapy of tissue. Thermal therapy is controlled by controlling the size of the treatment lesion covering at least a portion of the tissue to be treated (eg, a portion of a tumor). Preferably, the treatment lesion is...

Abstract

An apparatus and a system for performing thermotherapy on at least a portion of a tissue site are described. The apparatus and the system comprise a heating probe comprising an emitting area. The heating probe is connectable to an energy source for heating the tissue by the emitting area. The apparatus and system comprise a sleeve. The heating probe is arrangable in the sleeve, and the sleeve is configured to be slid along the heating probe in a distal and / or proximal direction for positioning of the emitting area in said portion of tissue for controlling the thermotherapy.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates generally to the field of interstitial hyperthermia for treating lesions associated with at least one region of tissue, such as a tumor. More specifically, the present invention relates to a system for controlling the heating and destruction of cancer using a heat source. Even more specifically, the present invention further relates to the use of a slidable sleeve to place a heat source in tissue to be treated. Background technique [0002] It is known in the art that the use of heat, such as hyperthermia, can destroy tumors. One of the most common hyperthermia techniques is interstitial laser hyperthermia, which destroys tumors by absorbing light. Early experimental and clinical studies used Nd-YAG lasers and bare-ended optical fibers inserted into the center of the tumor. Most of these lack adequate control for tissue effects. Methods to improve lesion extent include multi-fiber systems, slow-shooter-type fibers, and...
