ULTRASOUND DEVICE AND THERAPEUTIC METHODS |
| 摘要 |
The present invention is directed to an ultrasound device for use in implementing therapeutic treatments and transdermal analyte delivery. The device includes a piezoelectric transducer that efficiently and safely converts electrical energy to ultrasonic waves, and has a unique structure including a piezoelectric element positioned between two opposing, flexible concave covers. The device may be used for various therapeutic purposes including wound healing, tissue stimulation and transdermal analyte delivery. The invention is further directed to a novel analyte delivery system including the ultrasound device and an encapsulated analyte. |

1. A device that produces ultrasonic waves for therapeutic treatment comprising:
at least one ultrasound transducer, wherein the ultrasound transducer comprises:
a first flexible cover having a concave configuration;a second flexible cover having a concave configuration opposing the first cover to form a cavity between said first and second covers, anda piezoelectric element attached to and positioned between the first and second covers; and a driving means connected through an electrical matching network and operatively associated with at least one ultrasound transducer to supply an excitation voltage to the piezoelectric element. |
