Shock wave treatment of pathological tissue regions in the human body, whereby a sectional imaging technique is used prior to treatment to precisely locate tissue to be treated and so increase the efficacy of the treatment
Device for treatment of pathological regions of the human body with shock waves whereby a section imaging instrument, such as a computer tomography or magnetic resonance tomography instrument is used to generate a sectional image of the pathological region of interest. A locating arrangement is then used to mark the skin surface, based on the section images and a shock wave generator is positioned in the corresponding location and focussed on the area of interest. An Independent claim is made for a method for treating a patient using shock wave therapy, whereby the location of tissue to be treated is first precisely located using a sectional imaging technique, such as CT or NMR.
