  • Patent number: 8744594
    Abstract: An electromedical device for the non-invasive reduction or removal of subcutaneous adipose tissue, comprising an energy source which provides a high-frequency alternating current, comprising at least two individual emitters which are fed by the energy source and which are designed to emit high-frequency electromagnetic waves into subcutaneous adipose tissue, and comprising a directivity control which is coupled with the individual emitters and which controls the individual emitters in such a way that, by direction and field concentration of the high-frequency electromagnetic waves emitted by the individual emitters, a total electromagnetic field with a desired field geometry can be produced in the subcutaneous adipose tissue.
    Type: Grant

  • Publication number: 20080139906
    Abstract: Disclosed are a device and a method for noninvasive determination of body content substances, and to the validation of chemical and physical characteristics of blood and other body fluids. In particular, a noninvasive determination of the blood pressure is disclosed, in connection with other blood values of arterial blood, using optical methods at a patient interface, including the first device in the form of a optical transmitter and a second device in the form of an optical receiver, wherein the optical transmitter and the optical receiver are synchronized with each other by means of a control unit.
