[Sonography and biliary extracorporeal shockwave lithotripsy (ESWL)].
Ultrasound is an indispensable tool for preliminary diagnosis ("filter function"), during treatment ("monitoring function") and in the follow-up examinations ("follow-up function") after shock-wave lithotripsy of gallstones. It permits rapid and reliable assessment of the therapeutic outcome and early identification of complications, which present-day experience has shown to be rare.
