Medical Grade

Dornier continues to develop new technologies to obtain the highest level of effectiveness and treatment flexibility from their lithotripters.  The result is low re-treatment rates, patient comfort and improved treatment efficacy.

Dornier OptiCouple

Dornier OptiCouple is an aimaging technology that enables healthcare professionals to optically view the patient contact interface from within the therapy head.  Operators can locate possible regions of inadequate patient coupling throughout ESWL treatments and improve outcomes.

The OptiCoupleAdvantage

The presence of imperfect coupling is detected real-time for immediate elimination by the operator.  The improvements in coupling can lead to reductions in:

  • Energy required
  • Number of shock waves applied
  • Treatment times
Shock Source

Based on Dornier’s well established reputation in excellence in shocksource design, Gemini provides shocksource options that optimize efficacy while minimizing side effects.  Due to the ability to move the shocksource around the table, patient repositioning is eliminated between shocksource locations.

Innovative Design

Employing an innovative proprietary design, Gemini provides a unique swiveling patient platform that has specialized positions optimized for both artifact free endourological imaging as well as lithotripsy from either side.
