Abstract:
To conduct thermotherapy with energy radiation by automatically choosing conditions of energy radiation to a seat of disease based on shape data for the seat of disease.
A seat of disease is cured by approximating shape of the seat of disease in question based on its shape data (S3), setting non-heating regions within the approximated shape (S5), selecting the most adequate object to distinguish in a region to be heated excluding the set non-heating regions (S9), allotting the selected object to distinguish so that regions heated by laser illumination may evenly be distributed (S10), determining the control information to control the laser illumination based on those allotted heating regions, and illuminating laser light thereon.
