Described is a system and method for the destruction of adipose tissue using an energy applicator such as a HIFU transducer. The system has a scan head containing an energy applicator, a mechanical arm for carrying the weight of the scan head, and a therapy controller such as a computer for controlling the operation of the scan head. The therapy controller may be part of a general purpose computer, and may be used as a robotic controller to automate the procedure. Methods are included for destroying adipose tissue in a quick, non- invasive manner.
L'invention concerne un système et un procédé pour détruire un tissu adipeux au moyen d'un applicateur d'énergie tel qu'un transducteur HIFU. Ce système comporte une tête de balayage dotée d'un applicateur d'énergie, un bras mécanique supportant le poids de la tête de balayage et un appareil de commande thérapeutique tel qu'un ordinateur pour actionner la tête de balayage. Cet appareil de commande thérapeutique peut faire partie d'un ordinateur universel et servir d'appareil de commande robotique pour automatiser le processus. La présente invention porte également sur des procédés pour détruire un tissu adipeux rapidement et de manière non invasive.
