Embodiment Construction

[0020]FIG. 1 schematically shows an apparatus according to the invention. The apparatus, indicated as a whole with reference numeral 1, has a support 3, for example fitted with wheels 5 for being moved on the floor. A laser source 7, which is connected to a treatment device 11 through a waveguide 9, is positioned on the support 3. In some embodiments, the waveguide 9 is formed by tubular segments 9A, connected to one another by articulation elements 9B, known per se, for allowing the positioning and movement of the device 11.

[0021]The device 11 is shown in greater detail in FIG. 2. It comprises a box-shaped body forming a housing 13, wherein one or two scanning mirrors are housed. The illustrated example schematically shows with a broken line two scanning mirrors 13A and 13B. The movement of the mirrors about their oscillation axes is controlled by respective actuators, for example consisting of galvanometers, under the control of a central unit 14, for example arranged on the suppo...

Abstract

The device for the treatment of the vaginal canal by a laser beam, comprises a vaginal canal wall retractor, associated to a system for directing the laser beam towards said wall.

Description

TECHNICAL FIELD[0001]The present invention relates to the field of electro-medical machines, and more in particular the field of machines and equipment using a laser source for treating the human body.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]Multiple applications of laser radiation are known for surgical, aesthetic or therapeutic treatment of the human body. In some applications, laser is used as a cutting instrument in replacement of scalpels. In other applications, laser is used for causing the necrosis of neoplastic tissues, for the bio-stimulation of the growth of particular types of tissues, for example of the cartilaginous tissue, for pain treatment. In applications more strictly related to aesthetic treatments, laser radiation is used for wrinkle reduction, skin rejuvenation, hair scalp treatment for favoring hair growth, stimulation of collagen production, etc.SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION[0003]The object of the invention is a new use of laser radiation in the medical field, and equipmen...
