There is a rich concentration of minerals in the kidneys, and when there is no sufficient medium to clear it out, these can form small crystals within the urinary tract and can settle anywhere along the urinary tract. Stones can, therefore, be found in any part of the kidney and the ureters, which connect the kidney to the bladder.
The pain that is associated with kidney stones is very diagnostic. It includes a sharp shooting pain in the back of the abdomen, on either side of the spine....more

Extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (ESWL) for kidney stones
Treatment overview -
Extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (ESWL) uses electromagnetic waves to break a kidney stone into small pieces like sand particles that can more easily travel through the urinary tract and pass from the body.
You lie on a water-filled cushion, and the surgeon uses x-rays or ultrasound tests to precisely locate the stone. Electromagnetic waves pass through your body without injuring it and...more

The size of a kidney stone ranges from the size of a sugar crystal to a ping pong ball. While some kidney stones pass out of the body with urine, others can block the urethra and become painful.

Kidney stones are a common health problem in our country. If left untreated, they can lead to pain, infection and in some cases even kidney failure.
ESWL (Extracorporeal Shops Wave Lithotripsy) is the only non invasive method of kidney stone treatment
Ultrasound guided ESWL has the added advantage of localizing the radiolucent calculi and provides a real time imaging of stone fragmentation.
