Abstract: A system having improved localization and wave generation apparatus for treatment of an area in the body of a patient. The system comprises a prelocation system allowing for initial localization of an area within a body of a patient. Following the initial localization step, the patient is moved into a treatment position using a sliding table top. A high power wave generation device is provided for generating waves for treating the area. The system further provides for an ultrasonic monitoring device, coupled with the high power wave generation device, allowing for real-time localization of the area. The disclosed system utilizes, as part of the wave generation device, a piezoelectric transducer, an acoustical lens coupled with the transducer and a means for coupling the transducer to receive voltage from a high power voltage means.
