Abstract
Methods and devices producing time varying magnetic field have therapeutic uses. The device contains a coil made of insulated wires, an energy storage device, an energy source and a switch. The coil is flexibly attached in a case. The device has at least one blower for cooling the coil. The methods and devices can be used in for example in physiotherapy, neuropsychiatric therapy, aesthetic therapy, urology or urogynecology.
Claims26
A magnetic stimulation device which produces a time varying magnetic field for treatment, wherein the device comprises:
- a connection to an energy source, a switch, a coil, and an energy storage device and the energy storage device connected to the coil in order to provide energy to the coil;
- wherein the coil comprises insulated wires;
- and wherein a voltage drop in the energy storage device connected to the coil in order to provide energy to the coil, between successive amplitudes output from the energy storage device, is not higher than 21%.
A magnetic stimulation device producing a time varying magnetic field for treatment, wherein the device comprises:
- a connection to an energy source, a switch, a coil, an energy storage device connected to provide energy to the coil;
- wherein the magnetic stimulation device enables treatment with peak to peak magnetic flux density of at least 1.5 T, and wherein the switch is connected in parallel to the coil and the energy storage device, and with the device having a voltage drop between successive amplitudes output from the energy storage device not higher than 21%.
A magnetic stimulation device producing a time varying magnetic field for treatment, comprising:
- a connection to an energy source, a switch, a coil, an energy storage device connected to provide energy to the coil;
- the magnetic stimulation device enables treatment with single magnetic pulses repeated at a repetition rate above 70 Hz;
- the switch is connected in parallel to the coil and the energy storage device, and with the device having a voltage drop between successive amplitudes output from the energy storage device not higher than 21%.
