Definitions
- the transformer sections are designed to produce a gain of about 4-5 over the transducer. This is achieved by setting the diameter of the transformer sections 18, 20 at .150 and 0.080 inches, respectively.
- the length of the transformer sections 18, 20 are 1.500 and 7.554 inches, respectively.
- the transformer section 18 has a threaded portion 24 to mate with the coupling horn 16, and has a portion 26 which is adapted so that it may be grasped with a wrench or another tool to tighten the connection.
- Cavitation is a void or bubble produced by the inability of the fluid to overcome the stresses induced by the motion of the probe.
- the collapse of the cavitation bubbles in and around cellular (or biological) material produces a Shockwave that erodes or fragments the material allowing it to be removed through aspiration and suction.
- the mechanism of cavitation and its affect on tissues is well known in the art, and is described in such literature as U.S. Pat. No. 3,526,219 to Balamuth.
