Abstract: The invention relates to an apparatus for treating a pathology, comprising: -an implantable device (1) including an electrical connection terminal, -a remote control unit (2) for determining and controlling operating parameters of the implantable device (1), and delivering electricity thereto, -electrical connection means for electrically connecting the implantable device (1) to the control unit (2) via the electrical connection terminal, noteworthy in that the implantable device comprises a positioning indicator in order to facilitate detection of the position of the electrical connection terminal.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an apparatus for treating a pathology, comprising: an ultrasonic generation device (1), a remote control unit (2) to supply electricity to the device (1), electrical connection means (31, 32) between the device (1) and the control unit (2), remarkable in that the control unit (2) is programmed to assess the quality of the acoustic coupling between the ultrasonic device (1) and a tissue to be treated.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an implantable device (1) comprising: an ultrasonic unit (11) which includes an electric connection terminal, a support plate (12) which includes a through-opening for the connection terminal to pass through, and an attachment piece (13) which can cooperate with the connection terminal, the attachment piece (13) including a collar for pressing the support plate (12) against the ultrasonic unit (11) when the ultrasonic unit (11), the support plate (12) and the attachment piece (13) are joined.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a surgical kit for use in a craniectomy procedure, the surgical kit comprising: a medical device to be implanted in a cranial bone of a patient, the medical device (10) including several transducers for emitting ultrasound waves for treatment of brain tissue, a surgical accessory (20) intended to be positioned on the cranial bone of the patient, the surgical accessory (20) including a body whose outer perimeter defines the dimensions of an opening that is to be made in the cranial bone of the patient in order to receive the medical device, characterized in that the surgical accessory (20) comprises a plurality of holes (201) formed in the body, the position of each hole (201) on the body coinciding with the position of the axis of symmetry of a respective transducer, such that the accessory is able to be positioned optimally through the joint use of a neuronavigation system.

Abstract: An apparatus having an implantable ultrasound generating treating device to induce brain disorder treatment, suitable for implantation in or under the skull bone of a patient, includes several ultrasound generating transducers, which are connectable by a common electrical connection circuit to a generator, and wherein the ultrasound generating transducers each have one or several operating frequencies. The transducers include the group of transducers having several transducers driven by a same electrical drive signal, and connected to the generator system by a common electrical connection circuit, where the electric drive signal serves both as power signal and as a control signal for operating selectively, within said group, at least one or the other of a first transducer or sub-group of transducers, and of a second transducer or sub-group of transducers. The apparatus is also used to treat brain disorders.
