| 20090048514 | DEVICE FOR ULTRASOUND MONITORED TISSUE TREATMENT - Apparatus is provided for lipolysis and body contouring of a subject. The apparatus includes a housing adapted for placement on tissue of the subject. The apparatus also includes a plurality of acoustic elements disposed at respective locations with respect to the housing, including at least a first and a second subset of the acoustic elements, wherein the first subset is configured to transmit energy in a plane defined by the housing, such that at least a portion of the transmitted energy reaches the second subset. Other embodiments are also described. | 02-19-2009 |
| 20110178541 | VIRTUAL ULTRASONIC SCISSORS - Apparatus is provided, which includes at least first and second focused ultrasonic transducers, which are arranged facing each other, and a controllable energy source. The energy source is configured to activate the focused ultrasonic transducers to simultaneously generate respective first and second focused ultrasound beams having respective first and second focal zones located in close proximity to each other. Other embodiments are also described. | 07-21-2011 |
| 20110184322 | METHOD AND DEVICE FOR TREATMENT OF KELOIDS AND HYPERTROPHIC SCARS USING FOCUSED ULTRASOUND - A method for treating a scar on a skin surface of a subject is provided. A subject is identified as having a skin surface with scar tissue. In response to identifying the subject as having the scar tissue, a housing comprising at least one acoustic transducer is placed on the skin surface with the scar tissue and the acoustic transducer is activated to apply high intensity focused ultrasound energy to a portion of the scar tissue. Other embodiments are also described. | 07-28-2011 |
| 20110251524 | DEVICE FOR ULTRASOUND TREATMENT AND MONITORING TISSUE TREATMENT - Apparatus is provided, including first and second support structures for placement on skin of a subject. At least one of the first and second structures is moveable with respect to the other so as to draw a portion of the skin and underlying tissue of the subject between respective lateral surfaces of the support structures. At least one ultrasound transducer is moveably coupled to the first support structure along an axis of the structure that is not parallel to the lateral surface of the structure. The ultrasound transducer is configured to transmit toward the portion of skin and underlying tissue one or more forms of acoustic radiation energy, including treatment energy. At least one acoustic element is coupled to the second support structure. Other applications are also described. | 10-13-2011 |
