A device for treating the human or animal brain with shockwaves has a shockwave transducer coupled to a position sensor for detecting the position of the shockwave transducer. The device is adapted to evaluate the signals of the position sensor to calculate the position of the focus spot of the shockwave transducer. Furthermore, a mapping device is provided for mapping the movement of the focus spot over a plurality of positions together with the applied shockwave dose at each of the positions. The applied shockwave dose may be indicated on a color display.
