Use of the Shock Wave Therapy in Basic Research and Clinical Applications—From Bench to Bedsite
Shock Waves (SW) are acoustic disturbances that propagate through a medium carrying the energy. These specific sonic pulses are composed of two phases—high positive pressure, a rise time < 10 ns, and a tensile wave. Originally Shock Waves were introduced

Tratamento conservador de trauma renal grave após litotripsia extracorpórea por ondas de choque
Subcapsular and perinephric hematomas are relatively common after shock-wave lithotripsy, but high-grade kidney injuries are extremely rare. We present the first case of a high-grade kidney injury after shock-wave lithotripsy managed conservatively. A 57-
