Weiterhin ist es bei diesem Verfahren wesentlich, die Emission von Mikrowellen in alle Richtungen zu verhindern, was eine Emissionsantenne mit ganz spezieller Gestaltung beinhaltet, die mit einer Reflexionseinrichtung zur Ausrichtung der abgestrahlten Mikrowellen in nur eine Richtung, nämlich zur Prostata, ausgestattet ist.Farther it is essential in this process, the emission of microwaves in all directions to prevent what an emission antenna is having includes very special design, with a reflection device for aligning the radiated microwaves in one direction only, namely to Prostate, is equipped.
Schließlich ist es mit einer solchen Vorrichtung fraglos ziemlich schwierig, wenn nicht unmöglich, den Schließmuskel zu schützen und allgemeiner die umliegenden Gewebe zu schützen. Dies gilt besonders im Falle einer Blasenbehandlung.Finally is it is unquestionably quite difficult with such a device, though not impossible, the sphincter to protect and more generally to protect the surrounding tissues. This is especially true in Case of blistering.

Der einleitende Teil dieses Patents zitiert das Dokument J. Microwave Power 14(2): 167–171 (1969) in Bezug auf einen Applikator, der zur Bestrahlung der Prostata durch das Rektum eingeführt wird. Festgehalten ist, daß die Bestrahlungsbehandlung eine Verbrennung der Gewebe beinhaltet, die nahe der Elektrode liegen.Of the The introductory part of this patent cites J. Microwave Power 14 (2): 167-171 (1969) in terms of an applicator used to irradiate the prostate is introduced through the rectum. It is stated that the Radiation treatment involves burning the tissues that are close lie the electrode.
Gemäß diesem Dokument besteht das Charakteristische dieser Bestrahlungsbehandlung darin, daß sie bei einer niedrigeren Frequenz und bei einer höheren Wellenlänge durchgeführt wird, um das Eindringen in die Gewebe bis auf Tiefen von 5 bis 6 cm zu verbessern. Ein so tiefes Eindringen ermöglicht die umfangreiche Bestrahlung großer Tumoren im Darm o. ä.According to this Document is the characteristic of this treatment in that she is performed at a lower frequency and at a higher wavelength, to penetrate the tissues down to depths of 5 to 6 cm too improve. Such a deep penetration allows the extensive irradiation greater Tumors in the intestine or similar

September 1988, offenbart Simulationen von SAR-Verteilungen für ein endokavitäres Zwei-Element-Strahlungssystem. Das System weist zwei Dipolantennen auf, die in der Urethra und im Rektum im Abstand von 4 cm positioniert werden. Die SAR-Verteilung wird berechnet und unter den folgenden Betriebsbedingungen verglichen: a) nur der Rektaldipol wird gespeist; b) beide Antennen werden mit gleicher Eingangsspannung gespeist; beide Dipolantennen werden mit unterschiedlichen Eingangsspannungen gespeist.A presentation by Biffi Gentili, Borrani et al., Two-element radiating system for endocavitary hyperthermia, Hyperthermic Oncology 1988, Kyoto, Japan, August 29th - 3. September 1988, discloses simulations of SAR distributions for a two-element endocavity radiation system. The system has two dipole antennas located in the urethra and in the Rectum at a distance of 4 cm. The SAR distribution is calculated and compared under the following operating conditions: a) only the rectal dipole is fed; b) both antennas are with fed with the same input voltage; both dipole antennas are with fed different input voltages.
Die Schlußfolgerung dieser Präsentation lautet, daß das Zwei-Antennen-System für eine bessere SAR-Verteilung in dem Bereich sorgt, in dem die Hyperthermiebehandlung angewendet wird.The Conclusion this presentation is that that Two-antenna system for Provides a better SAR distribution in the area in which the hyperthermia treatment is applied.

Die Sonde ist aus einem Koaxialkabel gebildet, dessen Sondenspitze mit einer Antenne versehen ist. Berichtet wird über Tests an Schinkenscheiben als Prostatagewebsattrappen, Tierversuche und klinische Versuche.T. Harada et al., Microwave surgical treatment of disease of prostate, Urology, Vol. XXVI No. 6, December 1985 disclose an applicator for transurethral microwave treatment of the prostate. The probe is made of a coaxial cable, the probe tip with a Antenna is provided. Reports are made on tests on ham slices as prostate tissue dummies, animal experiments and clinical trials.
ZUSAMMENFASSUNG DER ERFINDUNGSUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
Somit liegt der Erfindung die Aufgabe zugrunde, dieses neue technische Problem durch Bereitstellen einer Lösung zu überwinden, die eine genauere chirurgische Behandlung von Geweben durch Hyperthermie, insbesondere der Prostata, ermöglicht, während die empfindlichen Gewebe mit Ausnahme der durch Hyperthermie zu behandelnden effizient geschützt werden.Consequently The invention is based on the object, this new technical Problem by providing a solution to overcome, which is a more accurate surgical treatment of tissues by hyperthermia, in particular the prostate, allows while the sensitive tissues except those due to hyperthermia too treated efficiently protected become.
Die Erfindung ist durch die Merkmale der Ansprüche festgelegt.The Invention is defined by the features of the claims.
Daher ist deutlich, daß mit der erfindungsgemäßen Vorrichtung die Emissionssondeneinrichtung durch den natürlichen Urethrakanal direkt in der Prostata positioniert wird, was Schädigung des Schließmuskels verhindert.Therefore it is clear that with the device according to the invention the emission probe device through the natural urethra channel directly positioned in the prostate, causing damage to the sphincter prevented.
Ferner wird es aufgrund der strahlungsreflektierenden Schirmbildungseinrichtung gemäß einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform der Erfindung möglich, die Blase sowie die Rektalwände effizient zu schützen. Möglich ist, eine in alle Richtungen emittierende Emissionssondeneinrichtung zu verwenden, aber natürlich ist es erfindungsgemäß möglich und in einigen Fällen vorteilhaft, eine Sondeneinrichtung zu verwenden, die vorzugsweise in einer bestimmten Richtung emittiert.Further It is due to the radiation-reflecting shielding device according to a preferred embodiment the invention possible the bladder as well as the rectal walls to protect efficiently. Possible is an emission probe device emitting in all directions to use, but of course is it possible according to the invention and in some cases advantageous to use a probe device, preferably emitted in a certain direction.
Verständlicherweise werden daher alle entscheidenden technischen Vorteile, die vom Fachmann nicht erwartet werden und zuvor aufgeführt sind, erfindungsgemäß erhalten, wozu kommt, daß die vorgeschlagene Vorrichtung äußerst vielseitig und für den Arzt sehr leicht zu handhaben ist.Understandably Therefore, all the decisive technical advantages, by the expert are not expected and listed above, obtained according to the invention, what is the reason for that? proposed device extremely versatile and for the Doctor is very easy to handle.
