GeoBioMed perspectives on kidney stone recurrence from the reactive surface area of SWL-derived particles

Abstract Shock wave lithotripsy (SWL) is an effective and commonly applied clinical treatment for human kidney stones. Yet the success of SWL is counterbalanced by the risk of retained fragments causing recurrent stone formation, which may require retreatment. This study has applied GeoBioMed experi...
