摘要: An apparatus can include a subassembly having one or more electrode elements, each electrode element having a skin-facing side and a skin-facing surface. The apparatus can further comprise a skin contact layer comprising a conductive adhesive. The skin contact layer can be coupled to the subassembly and can be disposed on the skin-facing side of the electrode elements. The conductive adhesive is electrically coupled to the electrode and configured to contact skin of a subject. At least a portion of the skin contact layer is selectively removable from the subassembly.

摘要: An apparatus for providing Tumor-Treating Fields comprises an electrode layer having a plurality of electrode elements. First and second electrode elements are spaced apart within the electrode layer along a first axis. The electrode layer has at least one filler structure having a first filler portion positioned within a space between the first and second electrode elements. The at least one filler structure is configured to provide the electrode layer with a substantially consistent height along the first axis. The apparatus can further have an upper adhesive layer, a lower adhesive layer, and a layer of anisotropic material therebetween. The plurality of electrode elements can be in electrical contact with the outwardly facing surface of the layer of anisotropic material.

摘要: Assemblies for use in applying TTFields are disclosed. A treatment assembly can include a circuit board, a plurality of electrode elements, and a cover. Each electrode element of the plurality of electrode elements can have a metal layer and, optionally, a capacitive layer. Each electrode element can be coupled to the circuit board via the metal layer of the electrode element. At least a first electrode element of the plurality of electrode elements can be positioned on an outer side of the circuit board. A first portion of the cover can be disposed over the first electrode element and the outer side of the circuit board, and the first portion can contact the first electrode. A second portion of the cover can be positioned radially outside of a perimeter of the circuit board. The cover can include a layer of anisotropic material and at least one conductive adhesive or gel layer.
