Abstract
A process for detecting the quality of the coupling of a shock wave therapy head of an extracorporal shock wave lithotritor to the patient's body. A comparison is made between an ultrasonic image taken without any coupling (blank image) and the actual ultrasonic image taken while the patient's body was coupled.
