CONT

La lithotripsie biliaire extracorporelle. Dans cette intervention, le médecin localise les calculs biliaires à l'aide d'ultrasons et positionne le patient de sorte que des ondes de choc à haute énergie soient concentrées sur les calculs. Les ondes fragmentent les calculs, qui sont alors éliminés dans l'intestin ou dissous avec l'aide de médicaments.
