A medical work station has a central post; a vertically adjustable and pivotable mount on the post; a multi part rest having a head portion which is mounted to the mount for the rest to extend in various horizontal positions from the post; an X-ray station is pivotable mounted on a second post being offset from the central post, the X-ray station including equipment which, upon pivoting, covers a range that coincides with a limited position range of the rest as pivotably mounted on the central post; a stand for shock wave equipment is positioned so that the rest can be placed above it or has a particular position in relation thereto; and an ultrasonic equipment mounted on and including a multi-linked arm arrangement having a mounting part mounted on the rest mount.

Medical lithotripsy work station

An improved shockwave lithotripsy system includes a movable patient support carriage having a shock wave generator and focussing device mounted thereto, along with an indexing reference. An ultrasonic oscillator is also attached to a mounting arm arrangement mounted in turn to the support carriage and allowing for three dimensional adjustment of the oscillator relative to a patient on the carriage, the mounting arrangement having an additional indexing reference such that after a concrement internal to the patient is located using the ultrasonic oscillator, the shock wave generator may be brought into focus on the concrement by bringing the indexing references into registry.
