Shiftable transducer array with anisotropic material layer

Abstract

A transducer apparatus for delivering tumor treating fields to a subject's body, the transducer apparatus including: an array of electrodes, the array configured to be positioned over the subject's body with a front face of the array facing the subject's body, the array including electrode elements; and an anisotropic material layer electrically coupled to the array of electrodes and located on a front side of the front face of the array, the anisotropic material layer including a front face and a back face, the back face facing the array of electrodes. The anisotropic material layer further includes a hole passing through the front face and the back face of the anisotropic material layer, wherein the electrode elements are positioned around the hole of the anisotropic material layer.
