Title:
BODY FAT DECOMPOSER USING ULTRASONIC WAVES
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/1998/053787
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
A body fat decomposer utilizing irradiation of ultrasonic waves, wherein the irradiation condition is such that the 'power density on the irradiation surface of a body at an ultrasonic frequency of 15-150 kHz is not more than 100 mw/cm?2�' or the 'power density at an ultrasonic frequency of 200-900 kHz is not more than the permissible level in the ultrasonic medical world' on the basis of the results of experiments on the safety and fat decomposition efficiency. This fat decomposer is used for treating an obesity-caused disease, and maintaining the health and beauty. The formation of an image of and/or the temperature rise in the portion to be irradiated is estimated by measuring a physical constant of an ultrasonic pulse reflected wave, whereby the orientation of the portion to be irradiated and the dose are determined. The ultrasonic wave from an oscillator is applied to a water current or a shower, and the resultant water current is jetted to the body, whereby the irradiation is felt pleasant and carried out easily. The decomposition product FFA is burnt by setting the temperature of an acoustic transmission medium contacting the body lower than that of the body, or taking off the body heat by immersing a part of the body in the 24 �C water, to prevent the decomposition product FFA from returning to fat. A synergetic effect including the effect in maintaining a lean condition of the irradiated portion is obtained by using an acoustic coupling agent containing an obesity settling agent or irradiating the object portion with ultrasonic waves during an obesity settling agent administration period.
