Litotricia extracorpórea por ondas de choque (ESWL) - Medical Animation
MEDICAL ANIMATION TRANSCRIPT: Los riñones son los órganos que filtran la sangre para producir orina. La orina fluye desde lo riñones, a través del resto del tracto urinario, hasta que ese elimina del cuerpo. Se pueden formar cálculos renales, dentro del riñón, a partir de sustancias en la orina. La mayoría son lo suficientemente pequeños como para ser eliminados del cuerpo a través del tracto urinario, sin embargo, algunos cálculos renales se atascan cuando son demasiado grandes para pasar. El cálculo puede bloquear el flujo de la orina y causar mucho dolor. La litotricia extracorpórea por ondas de choque, es una forma de tratar los cálculos renales sin someterse a una cirugía que implique incisiones. Para comenzar, la ubicación exacta del cálculo se encuentra mediante el uso de un dispositivo de rayos X, o ultrasonido. Después, la maquina dirige ondas de choque hacia el cálculo renal. Las ondas de choque son ondas de sonido de alta energía que rompen el cálculo en pequeños pedazos. Después del procedimiento, estas pequeñas partes deberían ser eliminadas del cuerpo cuando vaya al baño. Esto no debería causarle mucho malestar. Si tiene alguna pregunta sobre la litotricia extracorpórea por ondas de choque, hable con su médico.

What attorneys say about MLA and The Doe Report:
"I would like to thank all of you at Medical Legal Art for all the assistance you provided. It was a result of the excellent, timely work that we were able to conclude the case successfully.

I feel very confident that our paths will cross again."

"I just wanted to let you know that after several days on trial, I settled [my client's] construction accident case for $4.5 million. Immediately after the jury was discharged, I spoke with several jurors who told me that they really appreciated the medical illustrations for their clarity in dealing with [my client's] devastating injuries. They also expressed their gratitude in being able to read from a distance all of the notations without difficulty. Obviously, the boards were visually persuasive. I am certain that this contributed to our successful result."

Michael Gunzburg, Esq.
Attorney at Law.
New York, NY

"Thank you for the wonderful illustrations. The case resulted in a defense verdict last Friday. I know [our medical expert witness] presented some challenges for you and I appreciate how you were able to work with him."

"Your firm is great to work with and, most importantly for me, you get the job done on time and with the utmost professionalism. You should be proud of all those you employ, from KJ to Ben B. I've been especially pleased over the years with the work of Brian and Alice, both of whom seem to tolerate my idiosycratic compulsion to edit, but I've not found a bad apple in the bunch (and, as you know, I've used your firm a bunch!). I look forward to our continued professional relationship."
