AI-driven framework for automated detection of kidney stones in CT images: integration of deep learning architectures and transformers.

Biomedical physics & engineering express
. Kidney stones, a prevalent urological condition, associated with acute pain requires prompt and precise diagnosis for optimal therapeutic intervention. While computed tomography (CT) imaging remains the definitive diagnostic modality, manual interp...

Machine learning-based prediction of stone-free rate after retrograde intrarenal surgery for lower pole renal stones.

World journal of urology
BACKGROUND: Lower pole renal stones (LPS) present unique challenges for retrograde intrarenal surgery (RIRS) due to unfavorable anatomical features, often resulting in suboptimal stone-free rates (SFR). Recent advancements in machine learning (ML) of...

Current state of AI for shockwave lithotripsy: a systematic review from YAU and EAU endourology.

World journal of urology
PURPOSE: To consolidate the current evidence of artificial intelligence (AI) for management of nephrolithiasis using extracorporeal shock-wave lithotripsy (ESWL), and to look at its feasibility into integration in clinical practice.

Machine learning models to predict the zero-fragment rate and lower pole access with FANS during flexible Ureteroscopy-an EAU section of endourology study.

World journal of urology
INTRODUCTION: Suction devices such as flexible and navigable suction ureteral access sheath (FANS) are promising tools to reach the zero-fragment rate (ZFR) after flexible ureteroscopy (FURS) and laser lithotripsy. FANS could especially be useful for...

Identification of aging-related biomarkers and immune infiltration analysis in renal stones by integrated bioinformatics analysis.

Scientific reports
Renal stones (RS) are common urologic condition with unclear pathogenesis. Role of aging-related differentially expressed genes (ARDEGs) in RS remains poorly understood. This study aims to identify potential aging-related biomarkers for RS, explore t...

From laser-on time to lithotripsy duration: improving the prediction of lithotripsy duration with 'Kidney Stone Calculator' using artificial intelligence.

World journal of urology
INTRODUCTION: "Kidney Stone Calculator" (KSC) helps to plan flexible ureteroscopy, providing the stone volume (SV) and an estimated duration of laser lithotripsy (eLD). eLD is calculated from in vitro ablation rates and SV. KSC's accuracy has been de...

Bing chat for kidney stone management questions based on the AUA guidelines: a comparison of chatbot conversation style modes.

World journal of urology
PURPOSE: Artificial intelligence (AI) technology will inevitably permeate healthcare. Bing Chat is an AI chatbot with different conservation styles. We evaluated each of these response mode answers regarding management of nephrolithiasis.

Measuring kidney stone volume - practical considerations and current evidence from the EAU endourology section.

Current opinion in urology
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: This narrative review provides an overview of the use, differences, and clinical impact of current methods for kidney stone volume assessment.

Constructing a machine learning model for systemic infection after kidney stone surgery based on CT values.

Scientific reports
This study aims to develop a machine learning model utilizing Computed Tomography (CT) values to predict systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) after endoscopic surgery for kidney stones. The goal is to identify high-risk patients early and p...

PFSH-Net: Parallel frequency-spatial hybrid network for segmentation of kidney stones in pre-contrast computed tomography images of dogs.

Computers in biology and medicine
Kidney stone is a common urological disease in dogs and can lead to serious complications such as pyelonephritis and kidney failure. However, manual diagnosis involves a lot of burdens on radiologists and may cause human errors due to fatigue. Automa...
