Summary of experiments performed in the present study.
Experiment Description | Stone Type | Variable | Measurements |
---|---|---|---|
1 Determine pressure threshold for stone fracture by bursts | Artificial | Pressure amplitude | Stone fracture yes/no |
2 Determine effect of stone composition on fragmentation | Artificial + Natural | Stone composition | Time to fragment + fragment size distribution |
3 Determine effect of ultrasound frequency on fragmentation | Artificial | Ultrasound frequency | Fragment size distribution |
