Abstract: A controller changes a position and/or orientation of a treatment head by controlling an operation of a robot arm according to an external input. A probe driver changes a projection amount of a diagnostic probe with respect to an irradiator. Further, the controller performs synchronous control to synchronize the probe driver and the robot arm with each other so that the relative position between the irradiator and the distal end of the diagnostic probe changes while holding the distal end position of the diagnostic probe.
Abstract: A control apparatus detects a misalignment between an irradiation position of a transdermal treatment device and a target irradiation position. When the misalignment is detected, the control unit stops irradiation of the transdermal treatment device or moves the irradiation position closer to the target irradiation position.
