## Abstract ## Objectives/Hypothesis: To identify the factors that affect outcome (stone clearance, partial clearance without symptoms, and residual stone with symptoms unchanged) of extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (ESWL). To develop and validate a predictive model for outcome of treatment.
## Abstract ## Objective: To evaluate the application of minimally invasive techniques in the management of salivary stones. ## Background: The incidence of salivary calculi is 60 cases/million/year, with most stones situated in the mid or proximal duct. The current treatment of these stones is
## Background and Objectives: In a preclinical study we have tested both in vitro and in vivo, a new type of pulsed solid-state laser system that has not been applied in urology so far and has been developed for optimized intracorporal lithotripsy of biliary, salivary, and urinary calculi. Study De
