Acoustic sensing of renal stone fragmentation in extracorporeal shockwave lithotripsy
, 2008 This thesis describes the research carried out by the author on the exploitation of acoustic emissions detected during extracorporeal shockwave lithotripsy (a non-invasive procedure for the treatment of urinary stones) to develop a new diagnostic system.

Common Calcified Femoral Artery Rupture After Intravascular Lithotripsy for TAVR Implantation
JACC: Case Reports, 2020 We describe a case with unfavorable calcified femoral access in which the implantation of a 34-mm self-expandable transcatheter aortic valve was possible after intravascular lithotripsy. Although the aortic valve was successfully implanted, we observed a

Femtosecond laser-shockwave induced densification in fused silica [PDF]
A tightly focused femtosecond laser-beam in the non-ablative regime can induce a shockwave sufficiently intense to reach local pressures in the giga-Pascal range or more. In a single beam configuration, the location of the highest-pressure zone is nested
