Abstract

L'invention concerne un appareil permettant de commander un traitement tissulaire ultrasonore focalisé à haute intensité (HIFU), qui comprend au moins un transducteur ultrasonore (128), un premier dispositif (130) couplé audit transducteur ultrasonore (128) afin d'entraîner ce transducteur ultrasonore (128), un second dispositif (132) couplé au premier dispositif (130) afin de commander ledit premier dispositif (130) et le transducteur (128), ce qui permet de recevoir des données d'écho de retour reçues par ledit transducteur (128). Le second dispositif (132) commande le premier dispositif (130) de façon a) à développer des données de tissu non traité; b) à stocker ces données; c) à traiter le tissu selon un cycle de HIFU à partir du transducteur (128); d) à développer des données du cycle (c); e) à comparer les données développées au niveau (d) aux données stockées au niveau de (b); f) à répéter les étapes (c) - (e) jusqu'à obtenir une valeur désirée d'un paramètre α de modification de tissu; et g) à fournir une indication une fois la valeur désirée du paramètre α de modification de tissu obtenue. L'invention concerne également un procédé permettant de commander un traitement tissulaire ultrasonore focalisé à haute intensité (HIFU) consistant a) à développer des données de tissu non traité; b) à stocker ces données; c) à traiter le tissu selon un cycle de HIFU à partir du transducteur (128); d) à développer des données du cycle (c); e) à comparer les données développées au niveau (d) aux données stockées au niveau de (b); f) à répéter les étapes (c) - (e) jusqu'à obtenir une valeur désirée d'un paramètre α de modification de tissu; et g) à terminer le traitement.
