Sonolith® Praktis: modular lithotripter
EDAP TMS’ Sonolith® Praktis features for clinical performance.
Sonolith® Praktis modular lithotripter featuring the patented Electroconductive technology for investment optimization and clinical performance.

- Ideal for private centers with moderate patient load
- Unique compatibility with most imaging systems
- Compact, modular and easily transportable
- Access to endourology applications
As part of a new modular endourological platform concept, the Sonolith® Praktis combines the latest technology developed in extracorporeal lithotripsy, electroconductivity, with a compact and innovative design.
The Sonolith® Praktis can be easily coupled with most currently used X-Ray C-arms and ultrasound scanners for accurate localization and real-time monitoring in the treatment of lithiases.
Sonolith® Praktis for high quality and cost effective lithotripsy
Proven clinical effectiveness
Electroconductive technology associated with efficacy, flexibility, pain-free treatments and reduced treatment duration.
User-friendly
Sonolith® Praktis is easy to install, no special personnel or equipment requirement. Adaptable to all currently used mobile X-Ray systems and ultrasound scanners.
Mobility
Mobile, transportable and ergonomic. Adaptable to any healthcare environment.
Efficiency guaranteed
With one of the highest Efficiency Quotients (EQ) on the market i.e. 80,7% (Flam & al*), the Diatron III electroconductive generator ensures excellent results.

Safety and patient comfort
Pressure under control with the exclusive Automatic Pressure Regulator
The use of a hydrophone for real-time calculation of the power actually emitted combined with an innovative control ensures maximum safety and efficiency.
Patient comfort first
With its wide power range and optimized geometry, the Electroconductive technology offers total flexibility in the selection of the therapeutic protocol: from painless treatment to the highest disintegration efficacy.
- Each treatment can be easily adapted to the patient according to their age and health.
- Dual imaging and localization systems
- Adaptable to existing imaging systems for better utilization
Thanks to its unique interface design, the Sonolith® Praktis is adaptable to most currently used X-Ray and ultrasound devices, reducing the capital investment required.
