Electromagnetic-wave thermatological device

Claim 1

An electromagnetic thermatological device comprising a main body coupled to an applicator, the applicator being insertable into a urethra of a body, and wherein: said applicator comprises: a distal end and a proximal end; a wave-applying section provided at the distal end, for applying electromagnetic waves to an affected body part; a first temperature sensor mounted on a surface of the distal end of the applicator, for detecting a first temperature of the affected body part; a second temperature sensor provided at the distal end of the applicator and spaced apart from said first temperature sensor along an axis of the applicator, for detecting a second temperature of a body part other than the affected body part; a power supply line mounted on the proximal end of the applicator and connected at one end to said wave-applying section; and a signal line mounted on the proximal end of the applicator, for transmitting signals representing the first and second temperature, and said main body comprises: means for setting a target temperature for achieving a thermatological treatment; means for setting a protect temperature for protecting an unaffected body part from the thermatological treatment; a wave-generating section for generating electromagnetic waves and for supplying electromagnetic waves to the wave-applying section of the applicator; means for comparing the first temperature with the target temperature and controlling emission of waves from said wave-generating section in accordance with a difference between the compared first temperature and target temperature; and means for comparing the second temperature with the protect temperature and stopping or reducing the emission of waves of said wave-generating section when the second temperature falls below the protect temperature.
