2.8 Dielectric Breakdown-induced Shockwave and its Biomedical Application - Mechanism
- Dielectric breakdown by short pulsed voltage discharging
- Effective underwater streamer propagation by electron-attractive microchannel.
- Shockwave treatment & Medicine injection
- Application to extracorporeal shock wave therapy (brain-cardiovascular stimulation)
- Hormonal medicine injection such as insulin, vaccine and antibiotics
