InterventionConsecutive patients with renal calculi attending for lithotripsy will be randomised to receive treatment at either 60 or 120 shock waves per minute. The shock wave lithotripsy treatment will be given using the current protocols, with patient care being altered in no other way. Patients will be reviewed after 3 months with a KUB X-ray, and retreated to a maximum of three treatments if there are remaining fragments greater than 4mm.
