How much does minimally invasive treatment for urological stones cost?

Patient's question:

Main symptoms: Nephrolithiasis Onset time: January 2001 Test results: 29X8

Doctor's answer:

Hello! Bladder stones less than 0.6 cm in diameter can be treated with drug-induced stone passage. Stones with diameters between 0.6 and 2.0 cm can undergo extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (ESWL). For stones larger than 2.0 cm, surgical stone removal is recommended. Prices vary by region and hospital level, so there are differences. Generally, the cost of ESWL is around 800 yuan per stone.
