Objectives: This study aims to evaluate wound healing effects of in vitro radial extracorporeal
shock wave (rESW) application on mouse fibroblasts and whether the cytotoxic effect of …

Radial extracorporeal shock wave (rESW) therapy is widely used in musculoskeletal
disorders and wound repair. However, the mechanisms of action are still largely unknown …

Background Recent clinical and animal studies have shown that extracorporeal shock wave
therapy has a promoting influence on the healing process of musculoskeletal disorders …

Extracorporeal shock wave therapy (ESWT) is widely used in the treatment of bone and
musculoskeletal diseases. Human osteoblast MG63 cells were exposed to radial ESWT with …

Background and purpose Extracorporeal shock waves (ESWs) are used to good effect in the
treatment of soft tissue injuries, but the underlying mechanisms are still unknown. We …

Introduction We investigated the effects of extracorporeal shock waves on cytotoxicity and on
the proliferation of human chondrocytes and ovine bone marrow stromal cells. Materials and …

Background: Extracorporeal shockwave therapy (ESWT) has been increasingly applied to
treat orthopedic and musculoskeletal pathologies. ESWT involves mechanical perturbations …

Background: Extracorporeal shock waves are known to stimulate the differentiation of
mesenchymal stem cells toward osteoprogenitors and induce the expression of osteogenic …

Background Extracorporeal shock wave application (ESWA) has the potential to qualify as
an adjuvant therapy option for soft tissue disorders such as chronic wounds. As of today …

Extracorporeal shock wave therapy (ESWT) is a safe and effective treatment option for
various pathologies of the musculoskeletal system. Many studies address the molecular and …
