The simulation of shockwave lithotripsy

Technology aims to raise living standards and provide a healthier life within the boundaries of reach. Surgical operations decreased with the use of physiological medical field, and anesthesia-free treatments gave positive results. The ultrasound is located in a wide range of applications for therapeutic and diagnostic purposes. One of them is shock wave lithotripsy used for treatment. The shock wave can be used to deliver the lithotripsy ultrasound from a source to separate small pieces of kidney stones and allow them to fall through the urinary tract. In this study, modeling of shock wave lithotripsy has been modeled. The shock wave in the model has been spread over the boxes on an imaginary grid. Energy, velocity and pressure changes have been kept at limit values.
