Does Deep Learning Reconstruction Improve Ureteral Stone Detection and Subjective Image Quality in the CT Images of Patients with Metal Hardware?

Journal of endourology
Diagnosing ureteral stones with low-dose CT in patients with metal hardware can be challenging because of image noise. The purpose of this study was to compare ureteral stone detection and image quality of low-dose and conventional CT scans with and...

CT-based deep learning model for predicting the success of extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy in treating ureteral stones larger than 1 cm.

Urolithiasis
OBJECTIVES: To develop a deep learning (DL) model based on computed tomography (CT) images to predict the success of extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (SWL) treatment for patients with ureteral stones larger than 1 cm.

Development and validation of a nomogram to predict impacted ureteral stones via machine learning.

Minerva urology and nephrology
BACKGROUND: To develop and evaluate a nomogram for predicting impacted ureteral stones using some simple and easily available clinical features.

Using ensemble learning and hierarchical strategy to predict the outcomes of ESWL for upper ureteral stone treatment.

Computers in biology and medicine
Urinary tract stones are a common and frequently recurring medical issue. Accurately predicting the success rate after surgery can help avoid ineffective medical procedures and reduce unnecessary healthcare costs. This study collected data from patie...

Predicting the Efficacy of Repeated Shockwave Lithotripsy for Treating Patients with Upper Urinary Tract Calculi Using an Artificial Neural Network Model.

Urology journal
PURPOSE: To establish a prediction model for repeated shockwave lithotripsy (SWL) efficacy to help choose an appropriate treatment plan for patients with a single failed lithotripsy, reducing their treatment burden.

Advancements in Uric Acid Stone Detection: Integrating Deep Learning with CT Imaging and Clinical Assessments in the Upper Urinary Tract.

Urologia internationalis
INTRODUCTION: Among upper urinary tract stones, a significant proportion comprises uric acid stones. The aim of this study was to use machine learning techniques to analyze CT scans and blood and urine test data, with the aim of establishing multiple...

Prediction of spontaneous distal ureteral stone passage using artificial intelligence.

International urology and nephrology
PURPOSE: Identifying factors predicting the spontaneous passage of distal ureteral stones and evaluating the effectiveness of artificial intelligence in prediction.

Image Enhancement Model Based on Deep Learning Applied to the Ureteroscopic Diagnosis of Ureteral Stones during Pregnancy.

Computational and mathematical methods in medicine
OBJECTIVE: To explore the image enhancement model based on deep learning on the effect of ureteroscopy with double J tube placement and drainage on ureteral stones during pregnancy. We compare the clinical effect of ureteroscopy with double J tube pl...

Machine learning prediction of stone-free success in patients with urinary stone after treatment of shock wave lithotripsy.

BMC urology
BACKGROUND: The aims of this study were to determine the predictive value of decision support analysis for the shock wave lithotripsy (SWL) success rate and to analyze the data obtained from patients who underwent SWL to assess the factors influencin...
