Abstract
ESWT induced bone healing in an average 60% of cases, which is consistent with current reported literature. CT studies gave some clues to patients' real condition of fracture anatomy before treatment, allowing a better decision in the orientation of ESWT application for each case. Volumetric Fracture Analysis for Winquist Classification shown that ESWT was able to induce significant bone regeneration in fractures with high volume. This kind of therapy was well accepted in reluctant patients to invasive methods.
