Inclusion Criteria: 1. Age ≥ 18 years 2. Single kidney stone (6 - 15 mm) in the target kidney 3. Stone density assessed by Hounsfield unit value (HU) ≤ 1,200 HU Exclusion Criteria: 1. BMI \> 29.9 2. Target stone that cannot be localised 3. Multiple kidney stones in the target kidney 4. Stones with a density value of \> 1,200 HU 5. Skin to stone distance (SSD) \> 160 mm 6. The presence of obstructions, malformations or other factors preventing targeting or passing of the stone, including but not limited to the following: 1. Skeletal malformations and obesity, preventing targeting of the stone 2. Malignant tumour in the shockwave path 3. Arterial aneurysm or calcium deposits, or thrombosis in shockwave path 4. Brain, spinal column or air-filled tissue, especially the lungs, in the shockwave path 5. Obstruction distal to the stone (as this would hinder the passage of fragments through collecting system or ureter) 7.
