High-energy shock waves (HESW) effectively break down kidney and ureter stones. Recent research explores HESW

Area of Science:

  • Biophysics
  • Oncology
  • Nephrology

Context:

  • High-energy shock waves (HESW) are established for treating kidney and ureter stones.
  • Emerging applications investigate HESW for tumor cell and tumor treatment in vitro and in vivo.

Purpose:

  • To review the effects of HESW on cells.
  • To elucidate the interaction mechanisms between HESW and biological tissues.
  • To explore combined treatment strategies involving HESW with biological response modifiers and cytostatic drugs.

Summary:

  • HESW demonstrate effects on cellular components.
  • Mechanisms of HESW interaction with tissue involve physical and biological responses.
  • Combination therapies with HESW, biological response modifiers, and chemotherapy agents are examined for potential synergistic effects.
