Lithotripsy
Extracorporeal shockwave lithotripsy (ESWL) treatment of kidney stones involves creating shock waves outside the body that then travel through the skin and body tissues until they hit the denser stones. The stones break down into very small particles and are easily passed through the urinary tract in the urine.
