ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for treating a life form with focused shockwaves has a patient bed, a locating system and a shockwave source, as apparatus components with which shockwaves converging in a focal region that coincides with a therapeutically relevant region located with the locating system can be generated. A common, essentially horizontally proceeding swiveling axis is provided around which the apparatus components are optionally pivotable independently of one another or around which at least two of the apparatus components are pivotable synchronously.
