MASTERPULS icon with V-ACTOR for high-speed vibration therapy.

The V-ACTOR operates at frequencies of up to 100 Hz and allows structured application across defined frequency ranges:

🔹 1–35 Hz: Neuromuscular activation and tissue preparation
🔹 36–50 Hz: Induction of reflexive muscle responses in cases of increased muscle tone
🔹 51–100 Hz: Intensive stimulation for targeted engagement of deeper tissue structures

This frequency-based approach supports structured integration into modern therapy concepts, including combination with shock wave therapy.

Editor’s Choice Article 2024 – EMTT & bone healing

🔹 What is EMTT?
Extracorporeal Magnetotransduction Therapy (EMTT) is a non-invasive technology that uses high-energy electromagnetic impulses to stimulate biological processes and activate cellular responses in targeted tissue.

🔹 What study investigates?
The awarded study from Gerdesmeyer et. al. provides in-depth insight into how EMTT affects bone-related cellular processes. It shows the upregulation of key osteogenic genes such as RUNX2 and COL1A1, increased collagen production, and a measurable acceleration of matrix mineralisation.

🔹 Why does it matter?
The reported data add to the current evidence base on EMTT and its interaction with bone-related cellular mechanisms.

Clinical Research Spotlight: Transcranial Pulse Stimulation (TPS) in Parkinson’s Disease

Transcranial Pulse Stimulation (TPS) is a non-invasive brain stimulation method currently under scientific investigation in neurogenerative diseases. Exploratory clinical studies have examined its use in patients with Parkinson’s disease.

In the studies published to date, researchers evaluated several clinically relevant domains using established Parkinson’s scales (e.g., UPDRS, NMSS, PDQ-39, BDI-II, PDSS-2), including:
🔹 Motor function
🔹 Activities of daily living
🔹 Mood and sleep
🔹 Cognitive performance
🔹 Quality of life

Across these scale-based assessments, studies reported improvements in motor function, mood and sleep quality, cognitive performance and quality-of-life measures.

The currently available data originate from early-stage clinical studies with limited sample sizes. The use of TPS in Parkinson’s disease is considered off-label and remains under scientific investigation.

STORZ MEDICAL meets Marco Matthes from ratiopharm ulm

How does the MASTERPULS R-SW100 perform in everyday professional sports settings?

Always on the road – our partner ratiopharm ulm, a German Basketball Bundesliga team, shares their experience with the compact radial shockwave device:

»The MASTERPULS R-SW100 travels with the team and is an essential part of our portable treatment setup. Designed to be as dynamic and mobile as the game itself – adapting to every tactic, as fast as the switch from offense to defense. The combination of radial shockwave and vibration therapy supports the players regeneration journey and physical readiness.« – Marco Matthes, Sports Physiotherapist at ratiopharm ulm

A practical perspective on portability, intuitive handling, and the combined use of vibration therapy and radial shockwave within daily team support.

❄️ Sports medicine in real competition mode: between halfpipe, mountain, and hotel room 🏂

In elite sports, medical support is an integral part of the performance strategy. Working with the German freestyle snowboard team, Dr Sebastian Sinz demonstrates how prevention, acute intervention, and continuous care are integrated into daily practice.

Mobility plays a key role. The MASTERPULS R-SW100 is used directly during training for immediate application without additional logistical steps.

From preparation to competition, Extracorporeal Shock Wave Therapy (ESWT) and Extracorporeal Magnetotransduction Therapy (EMTT) are part of training environment throughout high-load periods.

»In such competition phases, maximum load, short recovery windows, and high mental pressure come together«, explains Dr Sebastian Sinz.

Living with Alzheimer’s disease – a patient experience

Walter F. and his wife were confronted with an Alzheimer’s diagnosis that significantly changed their daily life. He became quieter, more withdrawn, and increasingly difficult to engage with.

While exploring further approaches, his wife came across Transcranial Pulse Stimulation (TPS), a non-invasive technology using acoustic pulses applied to targeted brain regions in patients with Alzheimer’s disease. After thorough research and medical consultation, they chose to begin this non-invasive procedure.

»He is back. He is once again the man I have always known«, as described by his wife. She reports changes in his daily routine over time, including activities such as preparing breakfast, going for walks, spending time in the garden, and solving crossword puzzles.

These descriptions reflect the individual experience of Walter F. and his wife and are not generalisable.

Study spotlight: EMTT – Extracorporeal Magnetotransduction Therapy in chronic musculoskeletal disorders

Chronic knee, shoulder, and back conditions are common in daily clinical practice, leading physicians and therapists to explore additional non-invasive treatment options.

A randomised, placebo-controlled clinical trial in Germany investigated Extracorporeal Magnetotransduction Therapy (EMTT) in patients with chronic musculoskeletal complaints.

EMTT is a non-invasive technology that uses high-energy magnetic impulses to induce electrical currents in tissue.

Study overview:
🔹 126 patients with knee osteoarthritis, rotator cuff enthesiopathy, or lumbar spondyloarthrosis
🔹12-week evaluation period
🔹 Outcomes assessed: pain intensity (VAS) and physical function (SF-12 PCS)

The study reported lower pain scores and higher physical function values in the EMTT group compared with placebo.

🌍 World Kidney Day: visualising stone targeting in SWL

Kidney stone disease is one of the many conditions affecting kidney health worldwide. On World Kidney Day, the focus is on raising awareness of kidney health and the management of kidney-related conditions.

Ultrasound-guided Extracorporeal Shock Wave Lithotripsy (SWL) is a non-invasive method for the management of kidney stones. Ultrasound imaging is used to locate and monitor the stone while shock waves fragment it into smaller pieces. This approach allows real-time targeting and treatment monitoring without fluoroscopy.

Key features of ultrasound guidance in SWL
• Dynamic monitoring of the stone
• No radiation exposure
• Fragmentation assessment during SWL
• Applicable in paediatric stone treatment

How does ultrasound guidance support the workflow?
• B-mode identifies and localises the stone
• Twinkling artefact (Colour Doppler) confirms the stone position, and supports continuous visual feedback during treatment
• Spectral Doppler tracking (»Hit and Miss« mode) provides
feedback on the interaction between shock waves and the stone

🐕 Extracorporeal Shock Wave Therapy (ESWT) in Small Animals 🐈

ESWT is a standard procedure in pain therapy for humans, horses, and small animals.

In veterinary applications, focused shock waves are used for deeper target areas, while radial pressure waves are pneumatically generated and applied to superficial indications.

In small animals, ESWT is used in indications such as:
🔸Stress fractures
🔸 Insertional desmopathies
🔸 Tendinopathies
🔸 Osteoarthritis
🔸 Myofascial pain syndrome

Shock wave therapy in daily veterinary practice.

What are your experiences with ESWT in small animals?
