Description

Therapeutisches Ultraschallgerät mit Impulsbetrieb Ultraschall wird für therapeutische Zwecke in Form kontinuierlicher Schwingungen benutzt, so daß sich stehende Wellen ausbilden können, die wiederum die Entstehung von in Resonanz schwingenden Gaskugeln bedingen. Dieser Effekt bewirkt Hämolyse.Therapeutic ultrasound device with pulse operation Ultrasound is used for therapeutic purposes in the form of continuous vibrations, so that Standing waves can form, which in turn cause resonance cause vibrating gas balls. This effect causes hemolysis.

Da Diffusionsbeschleunigung, Absorptionswärmeerzeugung und andere Ultraschalleffekte an der lebenden Membran auch ohne das Vorhandensein stehender Wellen eintreten, geht die Erfindung von der Erkenntnis aus, daß zur Vermeidung der schädigenden Wirkungen der Hämolyse bei der therapeutischen Beschallung stehende Wellen vermieden werden müssen.Because diffusion acceleration, absorption heat generation and others Ultrasound effects on the living membrane even without the presence of standing ones Waves occur, the invention is based on the knowledge that to avoid the damaging effects of hemolysis during therapeutic sonication Waves must be avoided.

Dies geschieht erfindungsgemäß dadurch, daß bei einem Gerät mit Impulsbetrieb die Schwingungszahlen innerhalb der Impulse veränderlich und die Impulsbreiten so gering sind, daß die Ausbildung stehender Wellen verhindert wird. Erfahrungsgemäß werden Impulse mit einer Impulsdauer unter 10 sec, vor zugsweise iO4 sec, verwendet, wodurch sicher die Bildung einer stehenden Welle vermieden wird. Die bisher bekannten therapeutischen Geräte, die einen Impulsbetrieb gestatten, erfüllen nicht die Forderung hinreichend kleiner Impulsbreite; sie sind aus anderen Gründen für diskontinuierlichen oder getasteten Betrieb eingerichtet. So sind Apparate bekanntgeworden, die Impulsbreiten von etwa 10-i sec gestatten; sogenannte Halbwellenapparate (mit Anodenwechselstrom betriebene Röhrengenerato,ren) besitzen auch noch zu große Impulsbreite. Legt man die für therapeutische Zwecke übliche Frequenz von 1 MHz zugrunde, so ergeben sich bei einer Impulsbreite von 102 sec immer noch 104 Schwingungen je Impuls, die völlig ausreichend sind, um eine gewisse Zeit eine stehende Welle bei den geringen Abständen, die in der Therapie zwischen Strahlerfläche und reflektierender Wand in Frage kommen, zu erzeugen. Dagegen besteht diese Möglichkeit nicht mehr bei Impulsbreiten unter 10 sec, vorzugsweise 10-4 sec. This is done according to the invention in that in a device with pulse operation the oscillation numbers within the impulses are variable and the impulse widths like this are small that the formation of standing waves is prevented. According to experience pulses with a pulse duration of less than 10 sec, preferably before iO4 sec, are used, whereby the formation of a standing wave is reliably avoided. The ones known so far therapeutic devices that allow pulse operation do not meet the requirement sufficiently small pulse width; they are discontinuous for other reasons or keyed operation. Apparatus has become known, the pulse widths allow from about 10-i sec; so-called half-wave apparatus (with anode alternating current operated tube generators) also have too large a pulse width. If you lay the frequency of 1 MHz customary for therapeutic purposes is the basis with a pulse width of 102 sec there are still 104 oscillations per pulse, which is completely are sufficient to produce a standing wave for a certain time at the short distances which can be used in therapy between the radiator surface and the reflective wall, to create. On the other hand, this possibility no longer exists with pulse widths below 10 sec, preferably 10-4 sec.

Vorzugsweise und wirtschaftlich werden erfindungsgemäß die erforderlichen kleinen Impulsbreiten mittels Löschfunkensender erzeugt. Hierbei ergibt sich noch der Vorteil, daß innerhalb der gedämpft an- und abklingenden Schwingung infolge der Dämpfung des Kreises Frequenzänderung eintritt, die ebenfalls dazu beiträgt, eine stehende Welle zu verhindern. Preferably and economically according to the invention are the necessary small pulse widths generated by an extinguishing spark transmitter. This still results the advantage that within the dampened rising and falling oscillation as a result the attenuation of the circuit frequency change occurs, which also contributes to to prevent a standing wave.
