The usefulness of the Hounsfield unit and stone heterogeneity variation in predicting the shockwave lithotripsy outcome

PURPOSEThis study aimed to evaluate the use of stone density variation coefficient (SDVC) as an indicator of stone heterogeneity and previously reported parameters for predicting extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (ESWL) outcome in urinary calculi. Moreover, a new formula that could be used to pr...
