Mechanical effect, which refers to the tension effect generated at the interface of different tissues after the shock wave enters the human body, resulting from compression and decompression.
Cavitation effect refers to the growth and collapse of micro nuclei cavitation bubbles that exist in interstitial fluids and vibrate under the action of shock waves. When the intensity of the shock wave exceeds a certain value, this effect occurs.
Thermal effect refers to the effect generated by the continuous absorption of vibration energy by tissues during the propagation of shock waves in living organisms.
