The invention relates to a radiation application apparatus for applying radiation at a location within an object. The radiation application apparatus comprises a transforming unit (2) for being arranged within the object at the location and for transforming ultrasound energy to electrical energy, and a radiation source (4) for being arranged within the object and for generating radiation (5) to be applied at the location within the object, wherein the radiation source (4) is driven by the electrical energy. Since the transforming unit transforms the ultrasound energy to electrical energy being used by the radiation source, it is not necessary to transfer electrical energy to the radiation source, i.e., for example, corresponding cables, which may have to be isolated, are not necessarily required. Insulation problems and corresponding safety problems, which may be present, if cables, in particular, corresponding high voltage cables, are used, can therefore be reduced.
