High Energy Shock Waves Suppress Tumor Growth in Vitro and in Vivo

Journal of Urology, 1986
Exposure of the Dunning R3327AT-3 rat prostatic carcinoma and SK-Mel-28 human melanoma, in vitro, to high energy shock waves resulted in a reduction in cell viability as determined by trypan blue exclusion and a decrease in the number of colonies formed in a clonogenic assay.

High-Energy Shock Waves: In Vitro Effects

American Journal of Kidney Diseases, 1991
To date, there have been multiple studies on the effects of high-energy shock waves (HESW) on benign and malignant cells under in vitro conditions. The major problem in comparing and contrasting these studies has been the wide range of mechanical, biological, and analytical variables facing the investigator. However, if one takes the time to select out

Cytotoxicity of High Energy Shock Waves: Methodologic Considerations

Journal of Urology, 1989
In vivo and in vitro experimentation with high energy shock waves (HESW) is necessary to further our understanding of the biologic effects and potential application of this novel energy form. Factors are identified which are critical to the design and subsequent interpretation of HESW experimentation. First, the nature of the containment vessel and the

High-Energy Extracorporeal Shock Wave Treatment of Nonunions

Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 2001
Forty-three consecutive patients who did not have healing of tibial or femoral diaphyseal and metaphyseal fractures and osteotomies for at least 9 months after injury or surgery were examined prospectively for use of high-energy extracorporeal shock waves.

Effect of high energy shock waves on tumor cells

Urological Research, 1990
Exposure of bladder tumor cell strain HT-1197, chronic bonemarrow leukemic cell strain K-562, and African green-turtle normal kidney cell strain Vero to high energy shock waves resulted in ultrastructural changes and a reduction in cell viability as determined by 3H-thymidine incorporation assay and flowcytometer.

Use of high-energy shock waves for bone cement removal

The Journal of Arthroplasty, 1990
The revision rate of total hip arthroplasty has increased dramatically over recent years, leading to different methods of extraction of the femoral cement mantle to reduce operative time and surgical risks. The use of high-energy shock waves produced by the Dornier HM.3 Lithotripter to interrupt the cement-bone interface and to reduce the material ...

Cellular Effects of Piezoelectric Versus Electrohydraulic High Energy Shock Waves

Journal of Urology, 1992
High energy shock waves produced by a piezoelectric lithotripter, (EDAP LT.01) and an electrohydraulic lithotripter, (Dornier HM3) were examined for their effects on Chinese hamster ovary cells in suspension. The EDAP caused acute lactate dehydrogenase release, consistent with severe membrane disruption in a proportion of cells, with the remaining ...

Effects of high-energy shock waves onmurine renal cell carcinoma

Urology, 1991
The effects of high-energy shock waves (HESW) on a murine renal cell carcinoma (RenCa) was investigated. In vitro exposure of tumor cells to HESW resulted in a dose-dependent reduction in cell viability as determined by trypan blue dye exclusion, plating efficiency, growth curve, and soft agar clonogenic assays.

Shock wave generated by high-energy electric spark discharge

Journal of Applied Physics, 2014
Shock wave generated by electric spark discharge was studied experimentally and the shock wave energy was evaluated in this paper. A pressure measurement system was established to study the pressure field of the electric spark discharge process. A series of electric spark discharge experiments were carried out and the energy of the electric spark used ...

Biological Effects Produced by High-Energy Shock Waves

2010
High-energy shock waves are known to produce a wide range of bioeffects associated with their clinical applications. In shock wave lithotripsy (SWL), which is the most successful application of shock waves in clinical medicine for noninvasive disintegration of kidney and upper urinary stones, transient hematuria, hematoma, and temporary deterioration ...
