The success of extracorporeal shock-wave lithotripsy based on the stone-attenuation value from non-contrast computed tomography
OBJECTIVE: To determine the utility of the urinary stone-attenuation value (SAV, in Hounsfield units, HU) from non-contrast computed tomography (NCCT) for predicting the success of extracorporeal shock-wave lithotripsy (ESWL). PATIENTS AND METHODS: The study included 305 patients with renal calculi...
