The effect of focus size and intensity on stone fragmentation in SWL on a piezoelectric lithotripter

PURPOSE: We aim to analyze the efficacy of different focus sizes and the influence of pulse pressure (intensity) during shock wave lithotripsy (SWL) in terms of stone fragmentation. METHODS: Combination of three focal sizes (F1 = 2 mm, F2 = 4 mm, F3 = 8 mm) and 11 output pressure settings (intensity...
