Apparatus for treating a patient with acoustic waves

An apparatus for treating a patient with acoustic waves has a source of acoustic waves and an X-ray locating system, which includes an X-ray radiator and a radiation detector, which are mounted opposite each other on a C-arm. The C-arm is adjustable along its outer circumference around its central axis. The source of acoustic waves is adjustable along the inner circumference of the C-arm such that the acoustic axis of the acoustic wave source constantly intersects the central axis of the C-arm.
