Ed Bowles of Piedmont Stone Center shows us how focused energy waves can shatter a piece of candy - an interesting visual to demo how the sound waves can also shatter kidney stones inside the human body without damaging surrounding tissues. The lithotripsy truck is stationed at Blue Ridge HealthCare's Valdese Hospital in Rutherford College, NC.

To bad doctors don't send their patients that are having Lithotripsy to RU-vid to see this video. This is a very consise and informative video. Kudos to you!

So helpful, as I'm going to have this done. You had a mess to clean up, but it is very much appreciated.

I know it's already been said, but THANK YOU for posting this video! I'm scheduled to have the procedure done next week and I feel SO much better now that I have an idea of what it will be like and how it works. Again, MAJOR thanks!

I just wanted to thank you both for putting this out there. I'll be getting this treatment soon (pleeease let it be real soon...) and I was curious about how it worked. I guess I'm weird but I'm not at all worried, I'm actually kind of excited because I find it very interesting.

Hi Ed great video. I can see this video help the patient to understand what to expect during the procedure. I just Passed my ARRT Boards a month ago. During my clinical studies we did not use a x-ray machine likes this one. Do you have any videos for the view for a RT. Jobs are hard to find and I have an interview next week at what seems to be a litho center.

I"m getting this done tomorrow and I didn't realize I need to pass the stones. I'm so afraid to feel pain. I didn't even know I had this stone! I drink at least a gallon and a half of water daily and have been for years! I'm so scared, please can someone tell me it will be ok!
