Rostec State Corporation has created a domestic ultrasonic device called "Lithotripter LT-1." The device will allow the destruction of kidney stones using a non-contact method, the company's press service reported.
"Lithotripter LT-1" operates on the principle of remote shock wave lithotripsy (RSWL). It involves the destruction of kidney stones using a focused ultrasonic wave. This approach is the most gentle for the patient, does not require surgical intervention or the insertion of catheters.
Localization of kidney stones is performed using X-ray and ultrasound equipment. RSWL does not require prolonged hospitalization; the procedure is performed on an outpatient basis.
The complex, developed by specialists from our holding company, has passed all the necessary tests and meets medical standards. Obtaining a registration certificate from Roszdravnadzor allows the device to be used in medical practice - both in public and private medical institutions.
"Lithotripter LT-1" was developed with the assistance of experienced urologists. It is planned to be launched into mass production soon to replace imported counterparts.
