ABSTRACT:
A neoplasm cell destruction device utilizing low frequency sound waves to disrupt or displace cellular materials in neoplastic cells so as to damage and ultimately destruct the neoplastic cells without destructing surrounding healthy cells and thereby eliminating the need for target finding apparatus. The device includes a plurality of signal generators, a controller, a plurality of amplifiers, a plurality of transducers, and a target interface. The controller is in electrical communication with, and generates timing and control signals for simultaneously activating, the plurality of signal generators. Each amplifier is in electrical communication with a respective signal generator and amplifies the signal generated by the respective signal generator so as to form an amplified signal. Each transducer is in electrical communication with a respective amplifier and is driven by the amplified signal formed by the respective amplifier. The target interface combines the waveform formed by the plurality of transducers to form an interference wave which is a low frequency sound wave.
