Standardized and reproducible artificial kidney stone models are important for performing comparative studies of different lithotripsy modalities. The acoustic and mechanical properties of renal calculi dictate the manner by which stones interact with the mechanical stresses produced by shock wave lithotripsy (SWL) or intracorporeal lithotripsy modalities. We have developed a novel artificial kidney stone model that is made of natural substances found in real kidney stones. These stone models appear to be much closer in physical properties to natural kidney stones than previously used stone models.
