[0094] The specific steps of the method will be described below in conjunction with specific embodiments and
Embodiment 1
[0095] (S1) The intelligent control unit 4 uses the microwave rotary heating mechanism and the capacitive radio frequency rotary heating mechanism to rotate and irradiate the human body thermotherapy area in cooperation to perform deep and shallow layered complementary diathermy, and set and adjust the microwave and radio frequency and power according to the tolerance of the human body, guide the translational heat-preservation bin 1 with rotating radiation heating to move back and forth, so that the thermotherapy area of the human body can be heated quickly and generally evenly to 40˜41° C.
[0096] In this embodiment, the heating method of microwave combined with capacitive radio frequency rotary irradiation adopts a global irradiation ring 33 for global heating of the human body membrane. The global irradiation ring 33 is provided with one or more pairs of capacitor plates 36 and one or more microwave magnetrons 37 are arranged at intervals in the circumferential direction. One pair or more pairs of capacitor plates 36 are used for radio frequency heat transmission, and the frequency can be selected in the range of 1 MHz˜300 MHz. One or more microwave magnetrons 37 are used for microwave heating, and the frequency can be selected from 300 MHz to 3000 MHz. The capacitor plate 36 is set individually, and the power is not less than 800 W for heating, such as 1000 W. If there are multiple sets, the total power is not less than 800 W for heating. For example, two are set, one of which is 400 W and the other is 500 W. The microwave magnetron 37 is set individually, and the power is not less than 600 W for heating, such as 700 W. If there are multiple microwave magnetrons 37, the total power is not less than 600 W, for example, two are set, one of which is 400 W and the other is 300 W.
[0097] Utilizing the advantages of the deep radio frequency heating to uniformly heat the points with a radius of 0˜13 cm, and the radio frequency heating is rotary heating to avoid the overheating of the surface fat layer caused by radio frequency radiation, and it can focus the deep layer to high temperature, and use the characteristic of microwave selective heating, use rotary heating to avoid the superficial fat layer to ensure that the fat will not overheat. For the defect of insufficient heat due to radio frequency rotary radiation in the middle ring zone with a depth of 2˜6 cm, supplementary heating is performed to achieve overall uniform heating. The radio frequency should be 1 MHz˜300 MHz electromagnetic waves, and the microwave should be microwave medium and low-frequency electromagnetic waves of 300 MHz˜3000 MHz.

[0105]
[0106]
[0107] S2: The intelligent control unit 4 slows down the heating speed by adjusting the power of the microwave rotary heating mechanism and the capacitive radio frequency rotary heating mechanism to supplement the heat of the body membrane thermotherapy area, and it takes no less than 10 minutes for each temperature rise of 1° C.;
[0108] In this embodiment, the pair of capacitor plates 36 and the microwave magnetron 37 are slowly supplemented with heat at the third set power and the fourth set power, for example, 100 W.
[0109] S3: After the temperature of the body membrane thermotherapy area rises to 42° C., the intelligent control unit 4 further controls to slow down the heating speed, combined with the heat conduction between adjacent tissues of the body membrane, so that the internal temperature of the body membrane is gradually uniform and accurate to 43° C. and maintained the body temperature balance; the intelligent control unit 4 maintains a relative constant temperature in the thermotherapy area for 30˜60 minutes based on the real-time temperature measurement data, under the premise of ensuring that the human body temperature resistance limit is not exceeded;
[0110] S4: In the above steps, the internal temperature data of the body membrane obtained with the help of optical fiber temperature measurement technology is the reference system, and the non-invasive in the body precise temperature measurement is achieved through the use of nuclear magnetic thermal imaging technology. The temperature measurement data is transmitted to the intelligent control unit 4 to accurately control the body membrane heat in real time. The temperature of the treatment area does not exceed the tolerance limit. Specifically, the step (S4) is performed through the following steps.
[0111] S401: Use the nuclear magnetic thermal imaging device to scan each temperature hot point in a certain temperature range (20˜80° C.), and establish a temperature field distribution map library for each temperature corresponding to the hot point.
[0112] The temperature field distribution map library must be composed of an unlimited number of continuous hot point thermal imaging data within a set interval. In actual operation, according to the accuracy requirements, a large number of hot point thermal imaging data statistics can be used to generate a thermal imaging information data map library composed of discontinuous hot spots, as a standard reference system, ensures that the temperature distribution map obtained by each nuclear magnetic thermal imaging device scans has no excessive deviation.
[0113] Further, in the temperature field distribution map library, the thermal imaging map data information has a one-to-one correspondence with its temperature value, which can be represented by two-dimensional coordinates.
[0114] S402: Obtain the temperature field distribution map of each hot spot in the patient's thermotherapy area (the composition of important hot spots can be selected according to the accuracy requirements) through the scanning of the nuclear magnetic thermal imaging device.
[0115] The temperature field distribution map includes thermal imaging information and location information of each hot point in the thermotherapy area (important hot points can be selected according to the accuracy requirements). The image information is a computer language containing temperature information, and the location information can use the form of three-dimensional coordinates.
[0116] S403: Use the optical fiber temperature measuring device to use non-invasive technology to obtain the temperature of several key points in the accessible part of the human body thermotherapy area as the temperature calibration point.
[0117] Further, the sensing optical fiber is non-invasively guided into the gastrointestinal tract, trachea, bladder, uterus, ear chamber and other tissue cavities in the patient's treatment area from the anus, mouth and nose, urethra, or ear canal, so as to avoid direct minimally invasive surgery of the human body and other forms of temperature measurement fiber into the human body to cause trauma.
[0118] Further, the temperature calibration point and its temperature reference include accurate temperature data and location information. The temperature calibration points obtained by the sensing optical fiber have corresponding points in the temperature distribution map, and the changes of the temperature values of both of them often lead to the same error in the same direction due to the change of objective factors.
[0119] S404: Combining the temperature field distribution map library obtained by scanning in step S401, calculate the temperature field distribution map obtained in step S402 to obtain the scanning temperature data of each hot spot in the thermotherapy area, and according to the temperature data of the temperature calibration point as the reference standard, the calculated scanning temperature data of each point is used for error correction, and the accurate temperature data of each hot spot in the thermotherapy area is obtained.
[0120] For example, if the precise temperature of point A on the sensing fiber measured by the optical fiber temperature measuring mechanism 2 is assumed to be 40° C., the position of the magnetic resonance scan of point A in the temperature field distribution map is point A′, which is compared with the temperature field distribution map library. The scanning temperature is 39.4° C., and the error correction value of the two is +0.6° C. If the position in the temperature field distribution map is point B′, the corresponding scanning temperature is 39.9° C., then the accurate temperature after error correction at this point is 40.5° C.
Embodiment 2
[0121] In this embodiment, the heating method of microwave combined with capacitive radio frequency rotary irradiation still uses the global irradiation ring 33 to heat the human body. The global irradiation ring 33 is provided with a pair of capacitor plates 36 and a pair of capacitor plates 36. Microwave magnetrons 37 are arranged at intervals in the circumferential direction. A pair of capacitor plates 36 is used for radio frequency heat transmission, and the frequency can be selected in the range of 5 MHz˜200 MHz. The microwave magnetron 37 is used for microwave heating, and its frequency can be selected from 300 MHz to 3000 MHz. In step S101, the two pairs of capacitor plates 36 are heated with the first and second set powers, such as 800 W, 300 W, and the two microwave magnetrons 37 are heated with the third and fourth set powers, such as 500 W, 200 W, and the temperature of center area and the muscle layer under the fat layer are the limit temperature points for temperature calibration. In step S102, the two pairs of capacitor plates 36 and the two microwave magnetrons 37 are both set to a low power, such as 80 W, to slowly supplement heat.
[0122] Based on the above heating parameters, steps S1˜S4 in Embodiment 1 are performed to implement the global heating of the body. As a consequence, not only the body surface, but also the deep organs can be accurately and easily heated, realizing accurate high heat and blanching throughout the body. The content of steps S1˜S4 will not be repeated here.
[0123] In the above global heating method, the heating parameters need to be selected by the physician according to human body constitution.

[0126] The bin body 11 is horizontally and slidably supported on the bin holder 12 and is driven by a drive mechanism provided in the bin holder 12. After the bin body 11 passes through the temperature measuring mechanism 2 and the global irradiation ring 3 in turn, the head protection bin 112 is supported on the head holder 13.
[0127] The temperature measurement mechanism 2 is used for real-time measurement of the temperature of any part of the human body section, and includes a nuclear magnetic thermal imaging device for collecting a temperature field distribution map of the human body section and an optical fiber temperature measurement device for temperature measurement at a temperature calibration point.
[0128] The temperature measurement method of the temperature field distribution map is as follows: first, the sensor fiber of the fiber optic temperature measuring device is introduced into the human esophagus, stomach or intestine through the mouth, nose or anus in a non-invasive manner. The sensor fiber can accurately measure the point temperature value of the path, take these points on the sensing fiber as temperature calibration points, and then scan the cross-section of the human body by the nuclear magnetic thermal imaging device to obtain the temperature field distribution map. Since the temperature calibration points are also in the thermal imaging scanning range, using the temperature of these calibration points as a reference, and the temperature value of each point in the thermal imaging range can be obtained in real time by comparing the temperature difference according to the temperature field distribution map.
[0129] As shown in

[0134] In the translational heat-preservation bin 1 of the thermotherapy instrument, the base 31 drives the bin body 11 to feed, and the feeding position is controllable.

The frequency of radio frequency should be 1˜300 MHz, and the frequency of microwave should be 300˜3000 MHz. In addition, the capacitive radio frequency rotary heating mechanism utilizes an annular phantom matched with capacitive radio frequency rotary irradiation to compensate for irregular defects of the human body to form a regular cylinder, which facilitates the capacitive radio frequency rotary heating mechanism to closely adhere to heat.
[0136] In one embodiment, on the global irradiation ring 33, one or more pairs of capacitor plates 36 and a number of microwave magnetrons 37 are arranged in different planes, that is, the ring surface on which one or more pairs of capacitor plates 36 are located and the ring surface on which the several microwave magnetrons 37 are located are partially or completely staggered on the central axis of the global irradiation ring 33 to avoid coplanarity.
