EMS Swiss DolorClast Radial vs STORZ MASTERPULS ONE: common questions
What is the difference between the EMS Swiss DolorClast Radial and the STORZ MASTERPULS ONE?
Both the EMS Swiss DolorClast Radial and the STORZ MASTERPULS ONE put their peak energy at the applicator surface, so they are built for the same clinical job and compare fairly. Both use pneumatic wave generation. The EMS Swiss DolorClast Radial is described as “Pneumatic ballistic radial”, the STORZ MASTERPULS ONE as “Pneumatic ballistic radial”.
Which is cheaper, the EMS Swiss DolorClast Radial or the STORZ MASTERPULS ONE?
Neither publishes a purchase price, so both need a written quote. Prices change and estimates are not quotes, so confirm both in writing.
Are the EMS Swiss DolorClast Radial and the STORZ MASTERPULS ONE FDA cleared?
FDA records located: for the EMS Swiss DolorClast Radial, 510(k) K220538 (Class I. Minor aches and pains, temporary increase in circulation, connective tissue activation); for the STORZ MASTERPULS ONE, no record located. A record covers one configuration and one indication, and never transfers to another model, so check it against the exact configuration you are quoted.
How do I choose between the EMS Swiss DolorClast Radial and the STORZ MASTERPULS ONE?
Start with the clinical job, then ask both vendors for the same five things in writing: the exact model, revision, and which accessories are included at that price; contract term, APR, total payments, and the buyout option at the end; handpiece and consumable life, and what a replacement costs; warranty coverage and US service turnaround time; the exact FDA clearance number and the current labelling for the configuration being quoted.
