、そしてそれにより主症状及び随伴症状が再発する場合
がある。In the irradiator described above, the means for influencing biological tissues with ultrasound waves are constituted by a piezoceramic element. The diameter of the element is 1 cm and its illuminated surface is flat. The presence of only one piezoceramic element has the disadvantage that it does not make it possible to simultaneously affect the entire tissue to be penetrated and that unstable techniques have to be used. Such techniques require the presence of the surgeon and are generally damaging to the surrounding tissue, which may lead to recurrence of the primary and associated symptoms.

部分にのみ影響を与える点において不安定な技術の使用
を必要とする。The presence of only one piezoceramic element does not allow the entire biological tissue to be penetrated to be simultaneously influenced by ultrasound, since the irradiated surface area of said element is too small. This requires the use of techniques that are unstable in that they only affect the part of the tissue penetrated by the ultrasound.
