A positioning system for an applicator includes a glove for being used for a diagnosis of the affected part, a mark body provided on the glove, an applicator for being inserted into a living body, and an energy emitter provided on the applicator for supplying energy to the living body. The positioning system further includes a sensor provided on the applicator which is capable of detecting the distance to the mark body, a control apparatus for discriminating an optimum position of the applicator based on the distance between the sensor and the mark body while the mark body is disposed in the proximity of the affected part based on a diagnosis performed using the glove, and a display apparatus for displaying a result of the discrimination by the control apparatus.

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 4 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.

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.
摘要:
An energy irradiation apparatus for medical treatment of tissues through irradiation of energy including a long main unit, an emitting part, a power transmission member, a drive mechanism, a first engaging member, and a second engaging is disclosed. The emitting part is disposed moveably inside a distal end of the main unit for emitting energy transmitted to a distal side from a proximal side. The power transmission member is disposed moveable inside the main unit. The emitting part is mounted to a distal end of the power transmission member. The drive mechanism reciprocates the power transmission member in a longitudinal direction of the main unit. The first engaging member is provided inside the power transmission member for receiving a drive force from the drive mechanism. The second engaging member is provided in the drive mechanism for engaging removably with the first engaging member.

The laser irradiation apparatus 100 comprises: a long and slender main body 101; a rotating shaft 180 that is held, rotatably inside the main body 101; optical fibers 103a, 103b; multiple reflecting mirrors 181a-181f that are installed on the rotating shaft 180 and reflect the laser rays; and a drive unit 105 that drives the rotating shaft. Multiple reflecting mirrors 181a14 181f are located in different positions along the longitudinal and circumferential directions of the rotating shaft 180. The slanting angles of reflecting mirrors 181a14 181f move are set at angles that converge the reflected laser rays at a target area. The positions where reflecting mirrors 181a14 181f reflect the laser rays move along the axial direction as the rotating shaft 180 rotates. The vicinity of the target area is maintained at relatively low temperatures. In the meanwhile, the target area is heated to a specified temperature due to the convergent of the laser rays.
摘要:
An side irradiating type laser ray irradiation apparatus for irradiating a tissue with a laser ray having a deep transmitting capability for the purpose of treating, for example, Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia, cancer or other tumors. The apparatus includes an irradiating unit for reflecting the laser ray, a transporting device for transporting the irradiating unit, and an interlocking device for changing the irradiation angle of the laser ray in correspondence with the movement so that the laser ray radiated from the moving irradiating unit always passes through the same point. Since the laser ray constantly passes through a point in a deep area of the tissue, it is capable of effectively heating only the deep lesional region.
摘要:
In a thermal therapy apparatus for treating a vital tissue by irradiating the tissue with a laser beam, a display unit displays a figure indicating the shape of a diseased part to be heated on the basis of information concerning the diseased part. Heating regions are arranged in the displayed figure indicating the diseased part shape by using identifiers corresponding to individual heating conditions. In accordance with size/position information of these heating regions arranged, heating conditions such as the laser intensity laser irradiation time and laser irradiation angle are set. Laser beam irradiation is performed by controlling the irradiation in accordance with the set heating conditions. The information pertaining to the diseased part can also be input on the basis of an ultrasonic signal from an ultrasonic probe separated from or installed in the laser irradiation portion.

A laser irradiation apparatus comprising: a long and slender main body 101; an optical fiber 107, which is placed inside the main body 101 and which is equipped with a proximal end through which a laser ray is introduced and an emitting part from which the laser ray is emitted sideways or diagonally; and a reflecting member 151, which is affixed inside said main body 101 and reflects laser ray emitted from the optical fiber 107. The emitting part of the optical fiber 107 is capable of making a reciprocating motion in the lengthwise direction inside the main body 101 within the specified range. The reflecting member 151 has a reflecting surface 152 that changes its reflecting angle as the emitting part of the optical fiber 107 moves along its reciprocating movement range.
