Extracorporeal Shock Waves in Orthopaedics by W. Siebert,M. Buch Pdf

The application of extracorporeal shock waves in the locomotor apparatus offers new therapeutic concepts. This book provides an up-to-date overview on the use of shock waves in orthopaedics. The main emphasis is laid on the basics of shock wave techniques and on the impact of shock waves on cells and organs. The reader is provided with a summary of experimental and clinical results of shock wave therapy applied to the bone and the epiphyseal growth plate. Authors from five clinical centres report on their experiences with shock wave therapy in tendinosis calcarea, epicondylopathy and calcar spur. Furthermore they report on first experiences with shock wave therapy in children with cerebral paresis.

Shockwave Medicine by C.-J. Wang,W. Schaden,J.-Y. Kuo Pdf

This comprehensive reference work provides a detailed overview of shockwave therapy, a relatively new clinical specialty in modern medicine. It follows the evolution of Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy (ESWT) from its initial stage as the gold standard for the disintegration of kidney stones to its regenerative effects in biological tissues. Starting with the basic principles of shockwave treatment, the book goes on to review its application in musculoskeletal disorders, including osteonecrosis of the hip, tendinopathy, fracture treatment, and treatment of sports related injuries. The application of ESWT in cardiovascular diseases is discussed. This includes preclinical and clinical applications for ischemic cardiovascular disease and effects on angiogenesis and anti-inflammation-molecular-cellular signaling pathways. The treatment of urinary diseases and erectile dysfunction by ESWT is elaborated. The book concludes with a discussion of future prospects of the shockwave therapy. Scholars and research fellows interested in shockwave medicine will benefit greatly from this work. It is also a useful clinical resource for nephrologists, urologists, cardiologists, and orthopedists.

Medical and Biomedical Applications of Shock Waves by Achim M. Loske Pdf

This book provides current, comprehensive, and clear explanations of the physics behind medical and biomedical applications of shock waves. Extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy is one of the greatest medical advances of our time, and its techniques and clinical devices are continuously evolving. Further research continues to improve the understanding of calculi fragmentation and tissue-damaging mechanisms. Shock waves are also used in orthopedics and traumatology. Possible applications in oncology, cardiology, dentistry, gene therapy, cell transfection, transformation of fungi and bacteria, as well as the inactivation of microorganisms are promising approaches for clinical treatment, industrial applications and research. Medical and Biomedical Applications of Shock Waves is useful as a guide for students, technicians and researchers working in universities and laboratories. Chemists, biologists, physicians and veterinarians, involved in research or clinical practice will find useful advice, but also engineers and physicists may benefit from the overview of current research endeavors and future directions. Furthermore, it may also serve to direct manufacturers towards the design of more efficient and safer clinical, industrial and laboratory equipment.

Bio-Inspired Algorithms and Devices for Treatment of Cognitive Diseases Using Future Technologies by Gupta, Shweta Pdf

As there are no proper medical tests available to predict certain diseases such as Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s at an early stage, there is a need to further study and consider the potential uses of bio- and nature-inspired algorithms and future technologies such as machine learning in correlation to disease detection and treatment. Bio-Inspired Algorithms and Devices for Treatment of Cognitive Diseases Using Future Technologies considers new tools for early detection of cognitive brain diseases using devices and algorithms whose basic concept is taken from nature and discusses design, analysis, and application of various bionics or bio-inspired algorithms. Covering topics such as depression and cognitive science, this publication is an ideal resource for researchers, academicians, industry professionals, psychologists, psychiatrists, nurses, engineers, instructors, and students.
