Lesion lump is shown in three dimensions in room, for patient, can more directly perceived, clearly understand the healthy shape of diagnosis and treatment person
Condition, can also assist personnel progress condition assessment.
Fusion prepared by the present invention presses the capacitive MEMS sensor array of detection and ultrasound functions, and traditional pole span is become
Change type capacitance pressure transducer, replaces with CMUT/ capacitive micromachined ultrasonic sensors, can improve a pressure sensor
The laminate structures pretension of the homogeneity and display of homogeneity and sensor spacing.Using this sensor array, biasing is integrated
Voltage and driving voltage circuit, the warm MEMS sensor array for pressing detection function and ultrasound detection function can be built into.This
Array is in conjunction with the detection module and display module for pressing detection function and ultrasound detection function, you can is configured to integral type spy
Head, for detecting and treating the exception of accessible tissue.Fusion prepared by the present invention presses detection function and ultrasound detection function
Capacitive MEMS sensor array, the hardness of tumour in tissue, size, outer can only be detected by solving single pressure sensor
Shape, and the problems such as be difficult to judge the global shape of depth of the tumour in tissue, the capsule of tumour or entity property, tumour, also
High frequency ultrasound treatment function can be realized by the effect of focus lamp.
The array structure of preferably silicone base capacitance MEMS single axial flexibilities of the invention, it is secondary to select PDMS flexibility low frequencies CMUT
Array.The array can apply the detecting head surface, finger end surfaces, hand in any shape with backing formula, inserted, finger cot type method
On art apparatus, for detecting the lesion for the treatment of local organization.
