The effect of high-energy shock wave therapy combined with cisplatin on mouse hepatoma

Surgery Today, 1995
It is well documented that high-energy shock waves (HESW) can produce antitumor effects in vivo and in vitro. Furthermore, because HESW can be focused on a limited area, this therapy is considered applicable to the treatment of localized cancer. In this study, we investigated the effects of HESW therapy combined with cisplatin (CDDP) on MH134 hepatoma ...

The effect of isolated high-energy shock wave treatments on subsequent bacterial growth

Urological Research, 1992
To determine whether high-energy shock waves possess bactericidal potential, ATCC strains of Escherichia coli, Streptococcus faecalis, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Staphylococcus aureus were suspended in solution at concentrations approximating 10(6) bacteria per milliliter, placed in polypropylene cryovials, and immersed in the water bath of a Dornier ...

High-energy shock waves pyrotherapy. A new concept in extracorporeal tumour therapy

Surgical Oncology, 1993
High-intensity shock waves (HISW) waves can produce rapid and intense tissue heating. We have studied a novel device capable of simultaneous shock wave generation, focusing and extracorporeal delivery along with imaging of the proposed target. Shock waves are generated by piezo-electric crystals and target a focal point of 10 x 2 mm.

Selenium reduces high energy shock wave-induced renal injury in rats

Urological Research, 2002
Using an in vitro model with Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cells, we showed that shock wave-induced renal injury could be ameliorated by selenium. We examined the influence of selenium, a free radical scavenger, in shock wave-induced tubular cell injury in vivo. Male rats were randomly assigned to three groups: 1 control (n= 18), 2 selenium (n = 18),

High energy laser beam steering with periodic shock waves

SPIE Proceedings, 2010
Atmospheric density gradients bend light as can be seen with naturally occurring mirages. Shock waves also produce density changes that bend or refract light. While a single shock front from a supersonic projectile refracts light only on the order of hundreds of arcseconds, theoretical results indicate that beam deflections of thirty or more degrees ...

Production of High-Energy Plasmas by Magnetically Driven Shock Waves

Physical Review, 1957
High-voltage discharges (5-100 kilovolts) with peak currents in 0.3 to 5 microseconds have been used to produce shock waves in deuterium plasmas. The discharge is struck in a transverse magnetic field and the resultant Lorentz force drives the plasma out of the region of the discharge into a quartz side arm.

[High energy shock wave treatment of the painful heel spur].

Der Unfallchirurg, 1999
Extracorporal shock wave application (ESWA) has been used in the treatment of stones located in kidneys, bile, pancreas and the glandula parotis. In the last 2 years several studies have shown the benefit of the ESWA on the treatment of soft tissue disorders.

Inhibitory effect of high energy shock waves and radiotherapy in vitro.

The Journal of stone disease, 1993
Exposure of mice fibroblasts cell strain 3T3 to high energy shock waves and megavoltage radiotherapy resulted in a reduction in cell viability as determined by trypan-blue exclusion and H3-Thymidine incorporation assays. Electromagnetic shock waves have a higher cytotoxic effect on cell viability than megavoltage radiotherapy, at low and medium levels
