Abstract

Extracorporeal shockwave therapy has been widely spread out showing an excellent efficacy compared to traditional medicinal treatments, interventional procedures or surgeries for diseases of tendons and musculoskeletal system. Major performance tests of extracorporeal shockwave therapy consist of pressure, energy flux, concentration, and effective amount of energy on the focus area of shockwave according to IEC 61846. Shockwave should be irradiated accurately to the lesion area to improve the performance of extracorporeal shockwave therapy, which makes it necessary to add the relevant section, IEC 60601-2-36 (12.1.101. Precision of Target Markers and Target Locations). International standards of extracorporeal shockwave therapy have been prepared based on European and western people. Thus, we need to conduct many studies on Korean patients to improve the quality of extracorporeal shockwave therapy and to develop the medical industry. In addition, the performance evaluation of extracorporeal shockwave therapy which has been prepared according to international standards should be additionally modified and supplemented corresponding to the Korean circumstances.
