The Medstone STS device offers urologists effective lithotripsy without compromising power, imaging, or patient positioning. Its detailed design makes it an attractive option for successful stone treatment.

Area of Science:

  • Urology
  • Medical Devices
  • Nephrology

Background:

  • Urinary stone disease management requires effective lithotripsy.
  • Current devices may present limitations in power, imaging, or patient positioning.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the Medstone STS as a device for lithotripsy.
  • To assess if the Medstone STS overcomes common lithotripsy limitations.

Main Methods:

  • Investigational device evaluation.
  • Clinical assessment of device performance during lithotripsy procedures.

Main Results:

  • The Medstone STS provides sufficient power for successful lithotripsy.
  • Adequate imaging capabilities are integrated into the device.
