Cavitation in shock wave lithotripsy: The critical role of bubble activity in stone breakage and kidney trauma
A study of the physical mechanisms responsible for the stone comminution and tissue injury in the shock wave lithotripsy (SWL) was presented. The SWL is a common and effective clinical method to comminute the kidney stones. It was found that the treatment at slow SW (shock waves) rate increased the...
