No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The older lithotripter, HM3, has over 90% stone-free rate in most studies. However, it's less transportable than the new model, F2. There are no prospective trials performed to make a valid comparison between these 2 lithotripters in terms of efficacy of stone fragmentation and clinical outcomes.
