A decision support system (DSS) was developed to predict postoperative outcome of a kidney stone treatment procedure, particularly percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL). The system can serve as a promising tool to provide counseling before an operation...
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: There has a been rapid progress in the use of artificial intelligence in all aspects of healthcare, and in urology, this is particularly astute in the overall management of urolithiasis. This article reviews advances in the use of ...

Duplex kidney and ureter is a congenital malformation. Few patients present with hydronephrosis caused by obstruction of the ureteropelvic junction of the duplex kidney, but lower kidney calculi caused by a duplex kidney abnormality is rare. This stu...
BACKGROUND: To demonstrate the technical feasibility of percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) guided by 5G-powered robot-assisted teleultrasound diagnosis system (RTDS) in a complex kidney-stone (CKS) cohort and present our preliminary outcomes. PCNL i...
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Machine learning (ML) is a subset of artificial intelligence that uses data to build algorithms to predict specific outcomes. Few ML studies have examined percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) outcomes. Our objective was to bu...
OBJECTIVE: The objective of this study was to develop and evaluate the performance of machine learning models for predicting the possibility of systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) following percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL).
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...
