ABSTRACT:
Apparatus for locally treating limited parts of a living body comprising a radiation emitter at the first focus of an ellipsoidal reflective surface with the part to be irradiated at the second focus. The reflective surface is on the interior of a casing which may be formed by a plurality of annular rings which are selectively removed to vary the distance between the radiated part and the radiation exit aperture. The source is preferably coupled to a waveguide, the waveguide and casing being filled with a dielectric.
