Embodiment Construction

[0069] Accordingly, the present invention relates to a device capable of performing therapeutic and / or cosmetic treatments on human or animal patients. The device can be used in any type of medical treatment, for example phototherapy and photodynamic therapy.

[0070] figure 1 is a schematic diagram of an apparatus according to the invention, indicated generally at 100 . The device 100 includes a housing 108 made of, for example, a plastic material. Housing 108 is substantially disc-shaped and includes a lower section 110 and an upper section 112 . Such as figure 1 As shown, upper section 112 includes a series of members 114 that may be used to hold or protect electronics 124 and light sources (not shown) within housing 108 . Lower section 110 and upper section 112 include annular members 110a, 112a, respectively. figure 1 Also shown within the annular members 110a, 112a, the device 108 contains a series of gaps between the members 114 that facilitate bending, flexing and...

Abstract

The present invention describes a medical device. More specifically, the present invention describes a medical device capable of conforming and / or conforming to non-planar surfaces on a patient's body.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a medical device. More specifically, the present invention relates to a medical device capable of conforming and / or conforming to non-planar surfaces on a patient's body. Background technique [0002] Conventional light sources are generally rigid structures and cannot be flexed. Furthermore, such conventional light sources contain electronics which further increase the rigidity of the conventional light source. Thus, in applications where flat light sources are required to conform to adjacent surfaces, this lack of flexibility limits the degree of compliance. Conventional light sources that are flexible have been found to be prone to cracking (or disconnecting from the electronics) when bent at an angle. [0003] Light can be used to treat a wide variety of diseases. When light alone is used to treat a disease, the treatment is called phototherapy. Light can be used in conjunction with drugs, in which case the treatment c...
