BSD2000/3D
The BSD-2000/3D provides the technological
advances need to optimize deep hyperthermia therapy:
-
24 dipole radiators which maximize the 3D
energy convergence at the targeted treatment location.
-
Dynamic 3D control and steering of the
heating pattern size, shape, depth and position.
-
State-of-the-art computer treatment
planning including a 3D CT patient data interface.
-
QA software, techniques and equipment to
ensure accuracy of RF power and phase calibration.
CAUTION: Investigational device or
investigation device exemption pending. Limited by United States law to
investigational use. |

Providing 3D control
for deep
hyperthermia therapy.
The Sigma Eye can achieve a
central focus of approximately 9 cm (approximately a third of the wavelength
of the diseased tissue). This focusing ability enables deep tumors to be
non-invasively treated by the Sigma Eye Applicator.
The 3D electronic steering
capability of the Sigma Eye can position and shape the energy focus in the
long body axis as well as the axial cross-section. A phase shift of 80
degrees between the end dipole rings will shift the heating pattern center.

Sigma Eye Applicator
The Sigma Eye applicator is a revolutionary
annular phased array design invented and patented by BSD Medical. Its 3D
array of 24 dipole antennae combined with its elliptical shape produce the
unique 3D pattern-shaping capabilities. The novel application of this phased
array technology to clinical hyperthermia provides unparalleled ability to
control and focus energy inside the body. |
