Shockwave therapy has existed in the form of lithotripsy for renal stones for several years, but recent technological developments have opened up new treatment avenues for this technique, in such common and debilitating conditions as osteonecrosis, tennis elbow and the chronic non-union of fractures. This book has been written and edited by the leading experts in musculoskeletal shockwave therapy from around the world, and represents the state-of-the-art in the subject, having been compiled immediately after the 1999 European Society for Musculoskeletal Shockwave Therapy in London.
