What is ESWL?
ESWL (Extracorporeal Shock Wave Lithotripsy) is a non-surgical method that focuses high-energy acoustic waves onto a stone under imaging guidance, reducing it to sand-sized particles.
About the Device
The Wolf-Piezolith 3000 used at our center employs piezoelectric technology. Its small focus area affects only the stone, with minimal load on surrounding tissue for high treatment comfort.
