متن کاملExtracorporeal Shock Wave Therapy for Plantar Fascial Pain
There is an increasing interest by doctors and patients in extracorporeal shock wave therapy (ESWT) for chronic plantar fasciopathy (PF), particularly in second generation radial extracorporeal shock wave therapy (RSWT). The present review aims at serving this interest by providing a comprehensive overview on physical and medical definitions of shock waves and a detailed assessment of the quali...
متن کاملExtracorporeal shock wave therapy in the treatment of a non-healing chronic venous leg ulcer
Extracorporeal shock waves are defined as a sequence of acoustic pulses characterised by a fast pressure rise to over 100 MPa, followed by a decrease to normal pressure within a few microseconds. In the 1980s, extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (ESWL) was first used for the treatment of urolithiasis. Orthopaedists then began to use extracorporeal shock wave therapy (ESWT) to treat non-union ...
متن کاملCan cellulite be treated with low-energy extracorporeal shock wave therapy?
The present study investigates the effects of low-energy defocused extracorporeal generated shock waves on collagen structure of cellulite afflicted skin. Cellulite measurement using high-resolution ultrasound technology was performed before and after low-energy defocused extracorporeal shock wave therapy (ESWT) in 21 female subjects. ESWT was applied onto the skin at the lateral thigh twice a ...
