dc.description.abstractThe Kidney Stone Center of the Pacific (KSCoP) currently provides statewide services for kidney lithotripsy. The non-invasive technique uses shock waves to disintegrate kidney stones. Extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (ESWL) can be used successfully in 85% to 90% of kidney stone patients when surgery is indicated.
