Abstract
The system for treating an internal organ (100) has a generator source for producing a shock wave connected to a portable shock wave applicator device (2), wherein the shock wave applicator device (2) has a side-firing shock wave head (40) having a variable angle adjustment relative to a release and lock connected handle or holder means (5) for holding said device (2). The inclination of the shock wave head (40) can be set to a fixed inclination to reach the organ (100) at various locations or surfaces or can be pivotally inclined continuous to vary the treatment surfaces area.
