ABSTRACT:
Coolant liquid is caused to flow through a lens section of an applicator to control the heating of the applicator due to a loss in propagation of the electromagnetic waves in the applicator. Furthermore, in this applicator, device for decreasing the internal loss, device for improving a lens effect to efficiently heat a predetermined portion in a living body, and the like are provided, respectively, as necessary.
