The History

Storz began in 1945 when Karl Storz laid the foundation for the Karl Storz Group. As early as 1970, the first ultrasound lithotripter broke ground as a treatment for urinary stones. Fast forward to 1987 and the first shockwave therapy lithotripter followed. That same year, STORZ MEDICAL AG was established in Switzerland. Then, in 1988, the prototype for the first modular lithotripter in the world, the Modulith SL10 WAS presented.

What followed was a series of innovations involving shockwave therapy technology that led to the future success of Storz Medical. Non-invasive solutions for urology, cardiology, neurology, and orthopaedic pain treatment were developed.

Now, shockwave technology is helping patients with an evolving range of conditions. Given the popularity of this technology, and the growth of the shockwave market, this type of device is clearly helping practitioners too. In fact, the global shockwave therapy market size was valued at USD $1.70 billion in 2022 and is projected to hit around USD $4.81 billion by 2032.
