extracorporeal membrane oxygenation
Example sentencesExamples

- 1.1 Denoting a technique of lithotripsy using shock waves generated externally.
Example sentencesExamples
- Such procedures include magnetic resonance imaging, which is often used to evaluate internal organs, and extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy, which uses shock waves to break up large kidney stones.
