A method of treatment of tissue (136) with focussed ultrasound comprises placing adjacent the tissue (136) to be treated a reflector of ultrasound or an ultrasound energy conversion device (128) which converts received ultrasound energy to heat, stores the heat and then releases the heat over time into the tissue (136) to be treated. An ultrasound transducer (120) is then oriented with its focal point (142) adjacent the reflector or ultrasound energy conversion device (128). The tissue (136) is then irradiated with high intensity focussed ultrasound while the reflector or ultrasound energy conversion device (128) is in place.
Technique de traitement de tissus (136) par des ultrasons focalisés. On place à proximité du tissu (136) à traiter un réflecteur d'ultrasons ou un convertisseur d'énergie ultrasonore (128) qui transforme l'énergie ultrasonore reçue en chaleur, stocke cette chaleur puis la libère avec le temps dans le tissu (136) à traiter. On oriente ensuite un transducteur d'ultrasons (120) en situant son foyer (142) à proximité du réflecteur ou du convertisseur d'énergie ultrasonore (128). On dirige alors sur le tissu (136) les ultrasons focalisés à haute intensité pendant que le réflecteur ou le convertisseur d'énergie ultrasonore (128) est en place.
