    摘要: A therapeutic applicator and method may include a wand portion and a module coupled to the wand portion. The module may have a body section and a recess positioned within the body section. The body section may include a prismatic member made of a transparent material and the body section may further include a convex surface. The convex surface may provide a magnification of a view that includes a region surrounding the recess. A radiation source may be positioned within the recess. The body section may have a thickness greater than a diameter of the radiation source which is sufficient to attenuate radiation being emitted from the radiation source while the transparent material of the body section allows visibility of a treatment site that is adjacent to the radiation source. The magnification of the view may fall in range between about 1.1 times to 50.0 times an unmagnified view.

    摘要: A method and system may include a therapeutic agent having a radioactive source enclosed by a container. The container may be placed within a cavity of a medical device for treating animal tissue. The method and system allows a radioactive source to be manufactured in such a manner so as to control and spatially modulate the delivery of radiation doses to a treatment area of animal tissue, such as for tissue of humans. From the container, radiation doses and/or a radiation field are produced by the radiation source. The geometry and size of the radiation doses are controlled by the geometry of the container and the geometry of the radiation source as well as the type, number, and geometry of holes/slots in either the source material and/or a surface of the container.

    摘要: An ophthalmic radiation device having a substantially light-transparent wand configured to emit light propagating through the wand light from a series of illumination ports at least partially circumscribing a radioactive source disposed in the holder, thereby providing a visual reference for identifying a position of the radioactive source.

    摘要: An ophthalmic radiation device having a substantially light-transparent wand configured to emit light propagating through the wand light from a series of illumination ports at least partially circumscribing a radioactive source disposed in the holder, thereby providing a visual reference for identifying a position of the radioactive source. Embodiments are directed at effectively directing light from a light source through the body of the wand to illumination ports by using the wand body itself as the light guide. The illumination ports are used as reference points by a medical practitioner to facilitate placing the device into a correct treatment position.
