Transportable lithotripsy system.
Innovation and experience
The modular design of the MODULITH® SLX-F2 allows the workstation to be tailored to specific system requirements. The lithotripter can be used with different X-ray systems to create an ergonomically optimized workstation. The »semi-stationary« concept can be combined with mobile C-arcs for localization. This semi-stationary arrangement of the workstation devices allows direct system access without having to readjust the system components. Since no installation measures are necessary, the workstation can be easily transferred to a different room.
A mobile version is available for temporary use of the workstation at different locations. This solution provides excellent flexibility to ensure fast and easy transfer. Only minimal adjustments are necessary before treatment can be started.

Mobile and flexible
Everything under control
STORZ MEDICAL has implemented a new pioneering control concept which enables central control of the most diverse system components. All devices in the network can be easily controlled from a central touch screen, irrespective of whether stone therapy, contrast medium imaging or percutaneous procedures are performed.
StorM-Touch control platform
The StorM-Touch central control platform for urological workstations is based on the OR1TM fully integrated operating room concept successfully launched by KARL STORZ GmbH & Co. KG. All networked devices are linked with each other through the Storz Communication Bus (SCB) and can be controlled centrally. StorM-Touch is complemented by a variety of useful options:
Unsurpassed shock wave source
The therapy source is the core component of any lithotripter. It not only determines the stone disintegration efficiency but also the localization systems that can be integrated into the lithotripter.
STORZ MEDICAL developed a proprietary shockwave technology which is exclusively implemented in all its shock wave devices. The patented cylinder source provides unsurpassed fragmentation efficiency with low side effects and an extraordinary focal depth of 165 mm.
180 mm focus depth – A new world record!
There has been a general trend of increasing obesity in many parts of the world. This alarming development inevitably means that the weight limits of medical devices need to be increased and that shock wave sources with higher penetration depths are required.
The MODULITH® SLX-F2 has an exceptionally high weight limit of 225 kg and can be equipped with an optional therapy source with a hitherto unparalleled penetration depth of up to 180 mm. These features enable reliable fragmentation of deep stones even in extremely obese patients and under difficult conditions.
