Abstract[English]
Alternating electric fields (e.g., tumor treating fields, a.k.a. TTFields) may be applied to a target region in a subject's body via sheets of graphite that are implanted in the subject's body. One or more ports configured for affixation to the subject's body include or connect to one or more mating electrical connectors. Electrical conductors are positioned to route electrical signals between the electrical connector(s) and the sheets of graphite. The alternating electric fields are applied to the target region by applying (via the ports) an alternating voltage between two sheets of graphite that are positioned on opposite sides of the target region.[French]
Des champs électriques alternatifs (par exemple, des champs de traitement de tumeur, également connus sous le nom de TTFields) peuvent être appliqués à une région cible dans le corps d'un sujet par l'intermédiaire de feuilles de graphite qui sont implantées dans le corps du sujet. Un ou plusieurs ports configurés pour être fixés au corps du sujet comprennent un ou plusieurs connecteurs électriques d'accouplement ou se connectent à celui-ci/ceux-ci. Des conducteurs électriques sont positionnés pour acheminer des signaux électriques entre le ou les connecteurs électriques et les feuilles de graphite. Les champs électriques alternatifs sont appliqués à la région cible par application (par l'intermédiaire des ports) d'une tension alternative entre deux feuilles de graphite qui sont positionnées sur des côtés opposés de la région cible.
