Device for Applying a Needle Array to Biological Tissue
First Claim
1. A device for applying a needle array to biological tissue, comprising a needle array holder carrying the needle array, a pre-tensioning geometry and an actuating element,wherein the actuating element is so configured that, during its actuation, in a first step it transfers the pre-tensioning geometry into a pre-tensioning position on the biological tissue while pre-tensioning the biological tissue, and in a second step it transfers the needle array into an application position on the biological tissue, while in this respect the pre-tensioning geometry is held in the pre-tensioning position.
