| 20120095452 | INTERSTITIAL ENERGY TREATMENT PROBE HOLDERS - An interstitial laser energy treatment apparatus having co-acting movable probe holders which facilitate positioning of a laser probe and thermal probe in different positions relative to a tissue mass such as the tumor to be treated and relative to each other to facilitate treating tissue masses based on the exact position, size and shape of the tissue mass. | 04-19-2012 |
| 20100292682 | METHODS AND APPARATUS FOR PERFORMING INTERSTITIAL LASER THERAPY AND INTERSTITIAL BRACHYTHERAPY - A therapeutic energy system for performing interstitial laser therapy and brachytherapy includes two categories of components. The first category includes components usable to perform both interstitial laser therapy and brachytherapy. The second category of components includes components usable to perform either interstitial laser therapy or brachytherapy, but not both. The components co-act to apply therapeutic energy to tissue. The components of the first system include components inserted percutaneously into the tissue, such that interstitial laser therapy and brachytherapy can be performed sequentially without removing and re-inserting percutaneous components. Components of the second category include components not requiring additional puncturing of the skin of a patient, such that removing and inserting components of the second category from a patient is done easily and painlessly. An energy probe component does not maintain a cavity around the tumor mass. Surgical excision of tissue can be performed coincident to therapeutic energy treatment as disclosed. | 11-18-2010 |
| 20100274125 | APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR DELIVERING ABLATIVE LASER ENERGY AND DETERMINING THE VOLUME OF TUMOR MASS DESTROYED - An apparatus and method for determining a volume of tissue mass destroyed. The present invention includes a temperature probe and a laser probe having a temperature sensor. The laser probe and temperature probe are inserted to measure a temperature of the tissue mass and a temperature of tissue mass surrounding the tissue mass. By determining the volume of tissue mass destroyed, a graphical representation of the volume of tissue mass destroyed is provided whereby real-time visual monitoring of the destruction of the tissue mass is achieved. | 10-28-2010 |
