Lithotripsy is a medical procedure that uses focused ultrasound, laser, or shock waves to break kidney stones into smaller pieces for easier passage. It is typically performed noninvasively and guided by imaging. The term can also refer more broadly to the breaking of calculi in other parts of the urinary or biliary tract under professional supervision.
