Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
Extracorporeal shockwave therapy (ESWT) is a noninvasive technique that uses single-pulse acoustic waves. These pulses are generated outside the body and focused on a specific part of the body.
