Apparatus for treating patient tissue with ultrasound imaging probe
The patent application (Publication Number: US20240032958A1) describes an innovative apparatus designed to treat tissue in patients using ultrasound imaging and a treatment probe. The apparatus includes a first arm to support the ultrasound imaging probe and a second arm to support the treatment probe, both in a stiff configuration. A linkage is used to rotate the energy source for treatment while maintaining the stiffness of the arms. A processor receives user inputs for treatment locations and controls the rotation of the energy source accordingly, allowing for precise and targeted tissue treatment.
Furthermore, the apparatus incorporates features such as displaying ultrasound images, adjusting the angular orientation of the energy source in real-time, aligning the treatment probe with the ultrasound imaging probe, and measuring angles using sensors. The energy source can heat tissue and is coupled with a source of saline. The apparatus also includes a second linkage for viewing the interaction of the energy source with tissue and an outer hand piece portion for user control. Overall, this patent application showcases a sophisticated system for tissue treatment that integrates ultrasound imaging, precise energy delivery, and user-friendly controls for enhanced medical procedures.
