摘要:
A temperature measuring unit of a temperature sensor has electrodes disposed on the upper and lower surfaces of a temperature measuring element, thin-film substrates disposed on the upper and lower surfaces of the electrodes, and laser beam shield plates disposed on the upper and lower surfaces of the thin-film substrates. One of the electrodes is bonded to the temperature measuring element by a conductive adhesive, and the other electrode is not bonded to the temperature measuring element by a conductive adhesive. When the temperature sensor is bonded to a hollow cylinder of an insert, the temperature measuring unit is curved along the surface of the hollow cylinder, tending to develop tensile stresses in the other electrode. At this time, the other electrode is positionally displaced depending on the developed tensile stresses, allowing the temperature sensor to be adjusted in length. Consequently, the temperature sensor is prevented from being broken or damaged.

Provided is the photodynamic therapy apparatus which is capable of detecting damage to the healthy part existing at a shallower part of a living body than the lesioned part so as to prevent disorder of the healthy part. The photodynamic therapy apparatus 10 is the photodynamic therapy apparatus 10 for treating the lesioned part existing at a deep part of a living body, using a light-sensitive substance which is activated by a light having a peak intensity within a predetermined range, but almost not activated by a light having the peak intensity out of the predetermined range, having: an irradiation device 12 which irradiates, onto the living body, pulsed light having wavelength which is capable of activating the light-sensitive substance; a detection device 14 which detects activation of the light-sensitive substance; and a control means 16 which controls the peak intensity of the light, based on result of detection obtained by the detection device 14 so that the light-sensitive substance is not activated at the healthy part existing at a shallower part than the lesioned part, and the light which reaches the lesioned part has the peak intensity within the predetermined range.

To make it possible to clean the internal part of a living body and possibly also deliver a drug into the living body, a medical therapeutic apparatus includes a liquid discharge for discharging a liquid in a living body out of the living body and a liquid delivery for introducing a liquid into the living body. The liquid is delivered to a target region of the living body, and controller controls the delivery and discharge of the liquid.
摘要:
An energy treatment apparatus adapted to irradiate a target site of living body tissue with energy comprises an energy emission unit for emitting the energy and a reflection device disposed at a position opposite to the energy emission unit to reflect energy emitted from the energy emission unit toward the target site. The energy emission unit can be controlled so that the emitted energy and the reflected energy are superposed on one another at the target site. The energy emission unit can include several energy emission units which emit different frequency energy. The energy emission unit can also be configured to emit energy toward the target site along different routes.
