This project aims to study the efficiency of kidney stone fragmentation devices used in hospitals and specialized clinics on workers, patients and the surrounding environment. They are considered effective medical solutions for treating urinary stones without the need for traditional surgery. Their efficiency varies based on several factors, including the size of the stone, its composition, and its location in the urinary system. The study includes:<br />1. Fragmentation effectiveness: The device's ability to fragment the stones into small parts that are easy to dispose of through the urinary system.<br />2. Guidance accuracy: Determining the location of the stone accurately using X-rays or ultrasound.<br />3. Wave power and characteristics: Measuring the intensity of the shock waves or laser used and their effectiveness with different types of stones.<br />Energy efficiency: Energy consumption versus performance to ensure the device's efficiency and cost-effectiveness
