Definitions

  • the invention relates to a shock wave source for the treatment of concretions in the body of a patient with a liquid-filled shock wave tube, one end of which is closed by a flexible sack that can be pressed against the patient by means of the liquid pressure, and at the other end of which there is a membrane which is separated by an insulating material layer , opposite a surface coil, which is connected to a supply unit for generating high-voltage pulses.
  • a shock wave source of this type is e.g. used to crush kidney stones.
  • an acoustic lens is arranged in the shock wave tube, which bundles the shock waves generated with the aid of the surface coil and the membrane onto a focus in which the kidney stone is arranged.
  • the particles of the kidney stone created by crushing go off naturally.
  • the surface coil is formed by a spiral winding, one end of which is grounded.
  • the opposite membrane made of metal is also grounded. If a high-voltage pulse is applied to the surface coil, the membrane is magnetically repelled due to the eddy currents generated thereby and initially generates a flat shock wave in the liquid in the shock wave tube, which is focused onto the focus by an acoustic lens.
  • the voltage between the high-voltage side coil end and the membrane is equal to the maximum value of the high voltage, so that arcing can occur, through which the membrane can be destroyed.
  • the invention has for its object to provide a shock wave source of the type mentioned so that the risk of Arcing between the surface coil and the membrane is reduced compared to the prior art.
  • the membrane has an insulating disk on which electrically conductive tracks are applied.
  • the membrane is not electrically conductive in its entirety, but only has electrically conductive, mutually insulated tracks.
  • the entire path that would have to be overcome in the event of a rollover thus comprises twice the distance between the electrically conductive tracks from the flat coil and additionally the distances between the individual conductive tracks and is accordingly considerably longer than in the prior art.
  • several conductive tracks as provided in accordance with the invention not only have the advantage of a distance to be overcome in the event of a rollover, but also the distance between the individual conductive tracks the advantage of a lower mass. Accordingly, in the case of several conductive paths for accelerating the membrane, less energy is required or, with the same energy, greater acceleration of the membrane and thus a steeper pressure increase of the generated shock wave can be achieved. A steepest possible increase in pressure is sought because shock waves are more suitable for crushing concrements, the steeper the pressure increase they have.
  • FIG. 1 shows a shock wave tube 1 which is filled with water as the coupling medium, the pressure of which can be controlled in a known manner, not shown.
  • the application side of the shock wave tube 1 is closed by an elastic bag 2.
  • the opposite side is closed by a membrane 3.
  • Inside the shock wave tube 1 there is an acoustic lens 4 for focusing the shock waves on one focus.
  • the high-voltage side end 6a of the surface coil 6 can be connected to a high-voltage generator 8 for generating high-voltage pulses, while the other end 6b of the surface coil 6 is grounded.
  • the surface coil is subjected to 6 high-voltage pulses from e.g. about 20 kV supplied.
  • 6 high-voltage pulses from e.g. about 20 kV supplied.
  • eddy currents are generated in the membrane 3, which cause the membrane 3 to be repelled by the surface coil 6, as a result of which plane shock waves are first generated in the water in the shock wave tube 1, which are then bundled in the manner described by the acoustic lens 4.
  • the membrane 3 according to FIG. 2 is formed by a circular insulating disk on which electrically conductive tracks 9, 10, 11, for example made of silver-plated copper, are applied are.
  • the tracks 9, 10 are designed as concentric rings.
  • the web 1 in the center of the membrane 3 is a disk-shaped support made of electrically conductive material on the insulating disk.
