Korean term or phrase: 체외충격기
This is from a marketing survey concerning medical equipment products made by Philips, Siemens etc. They talk about CT machines, MRI equipments among other things.

체외충격기

Apparently it is a device often used to treat shoulder pain.
It sounds like the machine either vibrates or sends some ultrasound waves to treat the pain.

I found related articles in Korean but cannot find the English word for it.
