LIGHT THERAPY DEVICE
A light therapy device for the disinfection treatment of fungal, bacterial and viral infections that can be applied in real time to both living and inanimate things, inside and outside the body is provided. The light therapy device has a base unit and a diffuser cap releasably connected to the base unit, the diffuser cap has a reflector element that varies depending on the shape and size of the area to be disinfected. The main parts of the diffuser cap are: a reflector element, a connecting element and a locking element. The reflector element is positioned above the light source, directing its light to the area to be treated, its shape is adapted to the area to be treated. The spectral range of the light therapy device is between the light wavelengths of 401 and 490 nanometres, and its light intensity is between 1 and 2000 J/cm2, depending on the area to be disinfected and the degree of infection.
Device for delivering precision phototherapy
Systems and method relate to administering phototherapy. A device includes a hollow structure having at least a first open end. The hollow structure includes a rotatable member, one or more coherent light generators, and, for each coherent light generator, one or more lenses or mirrors optically connected to the coherent light generator and configured to alter at least one aspect of a beam of coherent light. The device further includes a processing circuit including a processor and a memory storing instructions. The instructions, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to accept an input from an operator and generate one or more beams of coherent light according to a plurality of settings configured to produce a therapeutic effect at a targeted treatment site. Additionally, the rotatable member is configured to be rotated to direct the one or more beams of coherent light to the targeted treatment site.
Internal ultraviolet therapy
A UV light delivery device for performing intra-corporeal ultraviolet therapy is provided. The device includes an elongated body separated by a proximal end and a distal end. The device also includes a UV light source configured to be received at the receiving space. In some examples, the UV light source is configured to emit light with wavelengths with significant intensity between 320 nm and 410 nm and is utilized in conjunction with an endotracheal tube or a nasopharyngeal airway.
PORTABLE RECHARGEABLE LED RED LIGHT CAVITY HEALING DEVICES
A light-emitting diode (LED) therapy device and method of use is provided that increases healing of tissues by targeting damaged tissue at a predetermined wavelength and pulsed at a predetermined frequency. The device includes a housing and a light radiation module enclosed within the housing. The light radiation module includes an LED, a controller unit connected to the LED to control wavelength and pulsed frequency of the LED, and a rechargeable power source. The device also includes a light-diffusing member connected to the housing designed to diffuse light emitted from the LED to damaged tissue in a human cavity. Light in the red or near infrared range and pulsed at a Nogier frequency increases the effectiveness of the LED device to stimulate healing of damaged tissues. Particular devices include incorporation into a pacifier for healing an infant's gums, or nasal, auditory, vaginal, or anal cavities and adults or children.

Probe device, system and method for photobiomodulation of tissue lining a body cavity
A device is presented for use in treatment of tissues inside a body cavity. The device comprises a probe member having at least a portion thereof carrying a plurality of light sources, at least said portion of the probe member having dimensions and shape suitable for insertion into a certain body cavity and for arranging within the surface thereof a three-dimensional array of said light sources, the light sources being configured and operable to irradiate optical energy outwardly from said probe member.
SYSTEM AND PROCESS OF UTILIZING ULTRASOUND ENERGY FOR TREATING BIOLOGICAL TISSUE
A process for heat treating biological tissue includes providing a plurality of energy emitters formed into an array. Treatment energy in the form of ultrasound energy is generated from the plurality of emitters and applied to target tissue. The treatment energy has energy and application parameters selected so as to raise the target tissue temperature sufficiently to create a therapeutic effect while maintaining an average temperature of the target tissue over several minutes at or below a predetermined temperature so as not to destroy or permanently damage the target tissue.
RETINAL PHOTOTHERAPY SYSTEM AND METHOD HAVING FIXED PARAMETERS
A retinal phototherapy or photostimulation system includes a laser console generating at least one treatment beam having parameters to photostimulate or treat, while not permanently damaging, a retinal target tissue. The parameters of the at least one treatment beam are fixed so as not to be alterable by a medical provider. A projector or camera projects the at least one treatment beam onto at least a portion of the retina, and a scanning mechanism controllably directs the at least one treatment beam to treatment areas of the retina.
Apparatus and method for cosmetic treatment of human mucosal tissue
A device for providing fractional treatment of a body orifice includes a source of fractionated energy and a source of electrical muscle (EMS) energy. A programmed controller controls the application of fractionated and/or EMS energy. A probe is inserted by its distal end into the body orifice. The source of fractionated energy is positioned for transmitting fractionated energy from the source of fractionated energy through the probe to tissue in the vicinity around the body orifice; and, the source of EMS is positioned for transmitting EMS energy from the source of EMS energy through the probe to tissue in the vicinity around the body orifice. The programmed controller is configured to control the activation of fractionated energy and EMS energy one of simultaneously or sequentially.
DEVICE AND METHOD FOR UNATTENDED TREATMENT OF A PATIENT
An unattended approach can increase the reproducibility and safety of the treatment as the chance of over/under treating of a certain area is significantly decreased. On the other hand, unattended treatment of uneven or rugged areas can be challenging in terms of maintaining proper distance or contact with the treated tissue, mostly on areas which tend to differ from patient to patient (e.g. facial area). Delivering energy via a system of active elements embedded in a flexible pad adhesively attached to the skin offers a possible solution. The unattended approach may include delivering of multiple energies to enhance a visual appearance.
