Abstract
A system for evaluating a treatment device capable of radiating ultrasound for cauterizing human tissue, the system including: simulated tissue having a property that hue changes according to temperature in a particular temperature-sensitive area and simulating temperature change of human tissue at time of the human tissue receiving the ultrasound from the treatment device, the simulated tissue having an insertion hole where the treatment device can be arranged; a light source radiating planar light from the whole circumference, the light source being arranged surrounding the simulated tissue; an image taking device taking cross-sectional color images of light irradiation surfaces of the simulated tissue; and movement mechanisms causing the light source and the image taking device to relatively move in a photographing axis direction of the image taking device relative to the simulated tissue; and a movement mechanism control/information processing unit controlling the movement mechanism.
