Abstract: Purpose:Through the application and research of the technique low energy and long-distanceshock wave by extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy(ESWL)we intend to explore its application skills ,advantageof X-ray or B-mode ultrasonic examination in determining the location. Methods:We used the technique of lowenergy ,long-distance shock wave and X-ray or B-mode ultrasonic examination in determining the location to treat380 patients who suffered from calculus disease. Results :The 380 cases which we performed turned out to be verysuccessful. The technique of therapy with low energy,long-distance shock wave has greatly raised the cure rate ofcalculosis. It has a superiority with short time of hematuria,no ureteralgia and lower the occurrence rate of kidneyfilm hematoma. Conclusion :ESWL provides a new therapy to treat calculus disease. The technique of low energyand long-distance shock wave has great practical value, and the technique of X-ray or B-mode ultrasonicexamination in determining the location of calculus is well worth spreading.
