The interaction of shock waves with biological tissue – momentum transfer, the key for tissue stimulation and fragmentation: Erratum

The authors of the article “The interaction of shock waves with biological tissue—momentum transfer, the key for tissue stimulation and fragmentation”[1] wish to make two corrections to their paper. The corrected sections are below: 1. In the “Results” section (page 2812): Within a cross section area A the momentum P is given by: P=A∫0tptdt Or momentum density: P/A=∫0tptdt With p = pressure, A = cross section area, t = time. 2. Under “Forces generated by shock waves − momentum transfer” (page 2814): The change in momentum dP is inherently associated with force F, depending on the time required for the change dt, and is given by: F=dPdt
