 — Lithotripsy is a noninvasive procedure that treats kidney stones that are too large to pass through the urinary tract. Lithotripsy uses ultrasound shock waves to break kidney stones into smaller pieces that can be eliminated in the urine. Lithotripsy is also used to treat stones of the digestive system, such as gallstones and pancreatic stones.

In contrast, the Quanta System Litho is a flexible, economy laser system that can do most of what the Litho EVO laser can with slightly fewer features. With four operative modes, Litho automatically adjusts to the correct pulse duration. Here are additional details on Quanta System's Litho EVO and Litho laser devices.

Grid-tied solar systems. Grid-tied systems are solar panel installations that are connected to the utility power grid.With a grid-connected system, a home can use the solar energy produced by its solar panels and electricity that comes from the utility grid.. If the solar panels generate more electricity than a home needs, the excess is sent to the grid.
