The effect of High energy shock waves (HESW) on the viability and proliferation of normal human bone marrow cells was evaluated. A dose dependent increase in cytotoxicity with an increase in the number of HESW was demonstrated. In general 700 HESW immediately reduced the cell viability of bone marro

## Abstract The aim of this study was to determine if extracorporeal shock wave therapy (ESWT) in vivo affects the structural integrity of articular cartilage. A single bout of ESWT (1500 shock waves of 0.5 mJ/mm^2^) was applied to femoral heads of 18 adult SpragueβDawley rats. Two shamβtreated ani
To determine whether high-energy shock waves possess bactericidal potential, ATCC strains of Escherichia coli, Streptococcus faecalis, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Staphylococcus aureus were suspended in solution at concentrations approximating 10(6) bacteria per milliliter, placed in polypropylene cr
We have studied the effect of high-energy shock waves (HESW) alone or in combination with biological response modifiers (BRMs) or Adriamycin on the growth of the NU-1 human kidney cancer xenograft. When HESW are administered repeatedly (four sessions of 800 shock waves on days 0, 2, 4 and 6) a prolo
The effects of repeated high-energy shock wave (HESW) tumor administration on tumor blood flow (TBF) were studied in NU-1 human kidney cancer xenografts. Deuteriated water was used as a magnetic resonance spectroscopic detectable tracer for measuring tumor blood flow. Tumors were exposed twice to 80
Twenty rabbit femurs were used to study the effect of CO, laser on cortical bone. Sixteen femurs were treated with 20 watts, 3 mm defocused beam, 2 KHZ spike pulse mode CO, laser for 10 seconds through a circular window in the metaphysis. In four control femurs, the inner cortex was exposed without
