Embodiments may provide a general-purpose, relatively inexpensive, AI-driven implant that is able to adapt to and modulate any given region in the brain. For example, in an embodiment, an implant device adapted to be implanted within a body of a person for interacting with brain tissue may comprise a plurality of fibers adapted to receive electrical and optical signals from electrophysiological neural signals of the brain tissue and to transmit electrical and optical signals to provide electrophysiological stimulation of the brain tissue, the fibers electrically and optically coupled to at least one readout integrated circuit.

Systems for enabling delivery of very high peak power laser pulses through optical fibers for use in ablation procedures preferably in contact mode. Such lasers advantageously emit at 355 nm wavelength. Other systems enable selective removal of undesired tissue within a blood vessel, while minimizing the risk of damaging the blood vessel itself, based on the use of the ablative properties of short laser pulses of 320 to 400 nm laser wavelength, with selected parameters of the mechanical walls of the tubes constituting the catheter, of the laser fluence and of the force that is applied by the catheter on the tissues. Additionally, a novel method of calibrating such catheters is disclosed, which also enables real time monitoring of the ablation process. Additionally, novel methods of protecting the fibers exit facets are disclosed.

An apparatus for biophotonic tissue treatments comprising a wearable light emitter device, suitable to be configured to be applied to a body portion to be submitted to treatment. The light emitter device comprising a closed chamber, light guides being formed at the inside in order to transfer a preset-frequency light radiation at pre-fixed treatment points of the device. The light guides are connected to at least an optical fibre that direct thereof the light generated by at least a light radiation source arranged in a control unit for controlling the emission of light radiation. The control unit is operated by an operation unit for managing the treatment and for monitoring its implementation thereof according to set up parameters. The light guides being formed during the same production process and with the same material as the light emitter device.

A device for vaginal remodeling includes a preferably disposable, sterilizable handpiece which is an elliptical or preferably cylindrical applicator, adapted to be inserted in vagina. An electrode is positioned either on the outer surface of the handpiece or on the inner surface of the handpiece. A machine emits an RF sinusoidal signal, either continuous or pulsed, to cause heating in the tissues, or a plasma discharge, having a frequency from 10 kHz to 6 MHz, preferably between 50 kHz and 2 MHz, or between 200 kHz and 6 MHz, and connected to the electrode. Temperature sensors detect the temperature and are positioned on the handpiece. A PID algorithm is based software for feedback control of the power delivered on the basis of the detected temperature. The curvature radius of the electrode is equal to that of the handpiece on which it is positioned and is preferably tubular or annular.

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.

Methods and related devices for impinging light on tissue, for example within a body of a patient, to induce various biological effects are disclosed. Biological effects may include at least one of inactivating and/or inhibiting growth of one or more pathogens, upregulating a local immune response, stimulating enzymatic generation of nitric oxide to increase endogenous stores of nitric oxide, releasing nitric oxide from endogenous stores of nitric oxide, and inducing an anti-inflammatory effect.
