## 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 SpragueโDawley rats. Two shamโtreated ani
