Abstract:
An assembly (1) for heat treating an area (60) of biological tissue, including energy generating means (20) for supplying energy to a focal point (P) in said area (60), means (10) for measuring the spatial temperature distribution in said area, and a control unit (40) for controlling the movement of the focal point (P) along a predetermined path to give a spatial temperature distribution consistent with a pre-set distribution, characterised in that, as the focal point (P) moves along the path, the control unit (40) controls the distribution of the energy provided by the generating means (20) depending on the measured temperature distribution and the pre-set distribution, in accordance with a control law including a proportional-integral-derivative term.
