PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The Intelect
®
RPW is a compressed air-operated ballistic
shock wave generator. The shock waves in the device
are generated with a precision ballistic mechanism in the
handpiece. A projectile is accelerated by compressed air. The
motion and weight of the projectile produce kinetic energy.
When the projectile impacts against an immovable surface,
the shock transmitter, this kinetic energy is converted into
sound energy. This acoustic pulse is transmitted into the
tissue to be treated directly with the help of a gel.
These waves are physically classified as radial pressure
waves. The applied pressure pulse propagates radially within
the tissue and has a therapeutic eect on areas of the tissue
near the surface.
Note: This equipment is to be used only by a licensed medical
practitioner.
