Devices and methods for the treatment of endometriosis

1. A tissue treatment device, comprising:

an insertion section sized and shaped for insertion into a body via a trocar;

an illumination element coupled to the insertion section, the illumination element configured to illuminate a target area with a first light of a first wavelength and a second light of a second wavelength selected to facilitate identification of a select portion of a target tissue; and

an ultrasound element coupled to the insertion section including a generating component generating ultrasound waves that propagate through a coupling medium of an ultrasound dome to be focused on the select portion of the target tissue, the ultrasound dome coupled to the insertion section and configured to be positioned against the target portion of tissue.

2. The device according to claim 1 , wherein the first light is a white light and the second light is a blue light.

3. The device according to claim 1 , wherein the illumination element comprises a first illuminating component configured to generate the first light and a second illuminating component configured to generate the second light.

4. The device according to claim 1 , wherein the ultrasound waves propagate to a center of the illuminated area.

5. The device according to claim 1 , wherein the generating component includes an array of ultrasonic crystals.

6. The device according to claim 5 , wherein the ultrasonic crystals are arranged along a curved surface of the generating component.

7. The device according to claim 6 , wherein the curved surface has a focus area within an area illuminated by the illumination element.

8. A method for tissue treatment, comprising:

inserting into a body space an endoscopic element;

illuminating tissue with a first light of a first wavelength and a second light of a second wavelength selected to facilitate identification of a first target portion of tissue via an integrated illumination element of the endoscopic element; and

placing an ultrasound dome in contact with an identified portion of target tissue, a generating component generating ultrasound waves that propagate through a coupling medium of the ultrasound dome to be focused on the target tissue.

9. The method according to claim 8 , wherein the illumination element is aimed so that, during movement of the ultrasound dome into contact with the first target portion of tissue, the illumination element illuminates the first target portion of tissue.

10. The method according to claim 9 , further comprising the steps of: delivering the ultrasound waves to the first target portion of tissue while the ultrasound dome is in contact with the first target portion of tissue; and upon completion of the delivery of the waves to the first portion of target tissue, moving the ultrasound dome away from the first portion of target tissue to contact a second portion of target tissue while illuminating the second portion of target tissue with the illumination element.

11. The method according to claim 8 , wherein the ultrasound waves propagate to a center of the illuminated area.

12. The method according to claim 8 , wherein the first light is a white light and the second light is a blue light.

13. The method according to claim 8 , wherein the illumination element comprises a first illuminating component configured to generate the first light and a second illuminating component configured to generate the second light.

14. The method according to claim 8 , wherein the generating component includes an array of ultrasonic crystals.

15. The method according to claim 14 , wherein the ultrasonic crystals are arranged along a curved surface of the generating component.

16. The method according to claim 15 , wherein the curved surface has a focus area within an area illuminated by the illumination element.
