Abstract
An irradiation device for irradiating a living organism with electromagnetic radiation in order to influence biological structures inside the organism has a frequency generator that has a frequency synthesizer for the production of electromagnetic radiation having a defined frequency pattern, and a transmission antenna that is fashioned such that during operation the electromagnetic radiation is emitted essentially into a particular radiation volume. In addition, the irradiation device has an interface for acquiring structure-specific data for identifying a biological target structure that is to be influenced, a frequency pattern storage unit in which defined resonant frequency patterns allocated to various biological structures are stored, a frequency pattern selection unit for selecting a resonant frequency pattern from the frequency pattern storage unit on the basis of the acquired structure-specific data, and a control unit for controlling the RF generator in such a way that a subject to be irradiated, situated in the radiation space, is exposed to electromagnetic radiation having the selected resonant frequency pattern at a particular intensity and for a particular duration of irradiation.
