A system and method for therapy and diagnosis of a human or animal. At least one coupling element for coupling of radiation couples radiation from at least a first radiation source to a tumour site and/or from said second radiation source to said site and/or from said site to a detector. The coupling elements are combinations of at least one translatory distributor, at least one rotary distributor, and at least one operation mode selector means for directing either said therapeutic radiation or said diagnostic radiation to said site through said at least one first radiation conductor. The system may be used for interactive interstitial photodynamic tumour therapy. The system and method according to the invention combines the advantages of purely mechanical and purely non-mechanical solutions in a new and synergetic way.

L'invention concerne un système et un procédé de thérapie et de diagnostic d'un être humain ou d'un animal. Au moins un élément de couplage pour le couplage de rayonnement de couples de rayonnement, à partir d'au moins une première source de rayonnement vers le site d'une tumeur, et/ou à partir de ladite seconde source de rayonnement vers ledit site et/ou à partir dudit site, vers un détecteur. Les éléments de couplage sont des combinaisons d'au moins un distributeur de translation, d'au moins un distributeur de rotation, et d'au moins un moyen sélecteur en mode de fonctionnement, en vue d'assurer la direction, soit dudit rayonnement thérapeutique, soit dudit rayonnement diagnostique, vers ledit site, à travers au moins un premier conducteur de rayonnement. Le système peut être utilisé pour une thérapie de tumeur photodynamique interstitielle interactive. Le système et le procédé selon l'invention combinent les avantages de solutions purement mécaniques et purement non-mécaniques conduisant ainsi à une méthode nouvelle et synergique.
