    Abstract: A shock wave and/or ultrasound therapy system has an ultrasound and/or shockwave source with an ultrasonic transducer for ultrasonic imaging or an X-ray imaging system which is configured for providing a video signal, and which is coupled to a video processor. The video processor includes a neural network and is configured for detecting in the video signal at least one kidney stone and/or at least one kidney itself, which are marked in the video signal and displayed on a display. Position and/or orientation data of the at least one kidney stone and/or at least one kidney are delivered to a system controller for positioning the ultrasound and/or shockwave source

    Abstract: A shockwave transducer for a lithotripter includes a shockwave source and a body with an exit aperture. The transducer is configured to generate a shockwave propagating from the body and through the exit aperture. The body comprises at least one diffuser, which engages into the shockwave propagating from the body. This diffuser includes a material characterized by a propagation velocity of the shockwave that is different from the propagation velocity of the shockwave in the surrounding medium.

    Abstract: An apparatus for generating focused shockwaves and ultrasound waves comprises a concave reflector holding a cylindrical coil at its center axis. A power generator comprising a combined shockwave and ultrasound generator device is connected to the coil for alternatingly providing an ultrasound signal and a shockwave signal to the coil such that the coil alternatingly generates ultrasound waves and shockwaves.

    Abstract: A urological device include a patient table with longitudinal and broad sides, and an X-ray imaging system containing an X-ray source and an X-ray detector for detecting the X-ray radiation emitted by the X-ray source towards the patient on the patient table. A first linear drive is provided for moving the X-ray source parallel to the broad side and a second linear drive is provided for moving the X-ray detector parallel to the broad side, but in an opposite direction. A dedicated pivoting mechanism is configured to pivot the X-ray source around a first pivot axis.

    Abstract: A device for treating the human or animal brain with shockwaves has a shockwave transducer coupled to a position sensor for detecting the position of the shockwave transducer. The device is adapted to evaluate the signals of the position sensor to calculate the position of the focus spot of the shockwave transducer. Furthermore, a mapping device is provided for mapping the movement of the focus spot over a plurality of positions together with the applied shockwave dose at each of the positions. The applied shockwave dose may be indicated on a color display.
