ABSTRACT:
A therapy apparatus with a source of therapeutic acoustic waves, an ultrasound locating system with a diagnostic ultrasound transducer that emits a diagnostic ultrasound beam whose central ray is displaceable such in a scanning surface so that it scans a body slice of a subject to be treated achieves an improved image quality of the ultrasound images by the scanning surface being continually displaced slightly relative to the source during the generation of ultrasound images.
