Abstract

Various embodiments provide ultrasound treatment system characterized a transducer module (3) and a control module (4). The transducer module (3) can comprise a housing having a coupling surface connected to the upper surface by a contiguous wail and configured to retain a coupling solution, a movement mechanism located within the housing and comprising a rotatable shaft penetrating the upper surface of the housing, a first portion of an interface coupling on a distal end of the rotatable shaft and configured to mate with a second portion of the interface coupling, And at least one ultrasound transducer coupled to the movement mechanism and configured to emit ultrasound energy through the coupling surface and into a region of interest. The control module (4) can comprise a drive device configured to controllably rotate the movement mechanism, and comprising the second portion of the interface coupling configured to mate with the first portion of the interface coupling, and a control system configured control a timing and a position of the ultrasound energy emitted by the at least on transducer, wherein the transducer module (3) is removeably attachable to the control module (4).
