Abstract

See full text

Disclosed is a device for treating corporal tissue and/or for crushing corporal concretions by means of acoustic energy, such as shock, pressure or ultrasonic waves using a sound generation unit which generates acoustic waves, if need be, a downstream bundling unit for the acoustic waves, and a transmission medium for said acoustic waves generated by the sound generating unit, which medium conducts the acoustic waves to the body. The present invention is distinguished by the fact that the form of the interface and/or the conditions at the interface between the transmission medium and the body are set in such a manner that the transmission of the energy from the sound generating unit into the body occurs without major deviations from the desired propagation.
