Abstract
Description
本出願は、2003年12月30日に出願された仮出願第60/534,034号(代理人整理番号:021356−001300US)の利益を主張し、その全体が本明細書において援用される。
(1.本発明の分野)
本発明は、侵襲的構成要素を用いずに、脂肪組織への超音波エネルギーの投射を介する脂肪組織の破壊のための超音波トランスデューサに関する。より詳細には、本発明は、非侵襲性の脂肪組織破壊を行うための、複数の焦点を有するトランスデューサまたは複数のトランスデューサを用いる装置を詳しく述べる。
体を削ること(body sculpting)は、減量のために、および脂肪の無いやせた体形を回復するために、大いに求められる処置に発展した。美容外科の分野は、そのツールおよび技術の両方の発達と共に相当に広がった。早急な減量および体を整えることの両方を達成するより人気のあるものの内の1つは、脂肪吸引法である。
