    Abstract: Provided is a light delivery device for delivering light to a tissue of a patient comprising a microarray of tissue penetrating members, each tissue penetrating member having a distal end and a proximal end and configured to be inserted into the tissue, wherein the tissue penetrating members are at least partially optically transparent to provide optical transmission through a surface that extends between the distal and proximal ends of each tissue penetrating member; a transparent substrate having a top surface and a bottom surface, wherein the bottom surface supports the tissue penetrating members; a plurality of optical sources supported by the top surface of the substrate and in optical communication with the microarray of tissue penetrating members; the plurality of optical sources is configured to operably emit light; and an encapsulation layer disposed over the microarray of tissue penetrating members.

    Abstract: A light irradiation medical device comprising: a shaft having a lumen extending in the longitudinal direction; and a light guiding device that is disposed in the lumen of the shaft and is movable in the longitudinal direction. The light guiding device extends in the longitudinal direction and has a light diffusion part at a distal part of the light guiding device. The shaft has: a first window in a peripheral wall of a distal part of the shaft; and a second window at a distal end face of the shaft. The shaft has a reflection surface inside the shaft and at a distal side with respect to the first window, and reflects light emitted from the light guiding device.

    Abstract: The invention relates to a device (17) for treatment of body tissue, in particular for the permanent occlusion of varicose veins, preferably in the lower limbs, of varicocele and/or of vascular malformations and/or for the use in aesthetic surgeries, preferably laser assisted lipolysis, and/or for tumor treatment by means of laser induced thermotherapy and/or photodynamic therapy, by means of a light diffuser (13) circumferentially and endoluminally irradiating said tissue by laser light energy, said diffuser (13) being connected at its proximal end to a source (10) of laser light energy via a flexible wave guide (12) comprising a fiber optic core (1) covered by an optical cladding (2) having a refractive index smaller than that of the core (1), wherein in the cladding (2) and/or in the core (1) imperfections (18) are provided, designed as recesses and adapted to direct the light, preferably to refract and/or reflect the light propagating within the core (1) and/or its optical cladding (2) in generally radial directions, wherein a cap (7) transparent to the laser light enclosing the distal end of the core (1) and its optical cladding (2) in a fluid tight and/or liquid tight manner is provided. According to the invention the device (17) is characterized in that the outer surface (19) of said optical cladding (2) is fused in the region (A) between said imperfections (18) to the inner surface (21), preferably the inner diameter, of the cap (7) and/or in that the outer surface (19) of said optical cladding (2) extending over a distance in front and/or behind the region (A) provided with the imperfections (18) is fused to the inner surface (21), preferably the inner diameter, of the cap (7).
