Quality assessment of patient-facing urologic telesurgery content using validated tools.

Journal of robotic surgery
INTRODUCTION: With increasing accessibility to Artificial Intelligence (AI) chatbots, the precision and clarity of medical information provided require rigorous assessment. Urologic telesurgery represents a complex concept that patients will investig...

Simulation-based training in minimally invasive surgical therapies (MIST): current evidence and future directions for artificial intelligence integration-a systematic review by EAU endourology.

World journal of urology
INTRODUCTION: Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) affects a growing proportion of the aging male population. Minimally invasive surgical therapies (MISTs) such as Rezum and UroLift offer effective alternatives to traditional approaches like transureth...

Current Applications and Limitations of Augmented Reality in Urological Surgery: A Practical Primer and 'State of the Field'.

Current urology reports
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: To provide a primer for how augmented reality (AR)-guided surgical technology works at a fundamental level and discuss recent advances and limitations in a rapidly advancing field, including studies aiming to reduce current issues ...

Pioneering AI-guided fluorescence-like navigation in urological surgery: real-time ureter segmentation during robot-assisted radical cystectomy using convolutional neural network.

Journal of robotic surgery
Artificial intelligence (AI)-driven intraoperative navigation in urological surgery can enhance surgical precision through real-time structure identification and tracking. This study describes a novel AI solution that enables real-time fluorescence-l...

Use and Usefulness of Risk Prediction Tools in Urologic Surgery: Current State and Path Forward.

Urology practice
INTRODUCTION: Although the enthusiasm for artificial intelligence (AI) to enhance surgical decision-making continues to grow, the preceding advance of risk prediction tools (RPTs) has had limited impact to date. To help inform the development of AI-p...

Assessing ChatGPT Responses to Frequently Asked Patient Questions in Reconstructive Urology.

Urology practice
INTRODUCTION: Artificial intelligence (such as Chat Generative Pretrained Transformer [ChatGPT]) augments patient education on medical topics, including reconstructive surgery. In this study, we assess the information, misinformation, and readability...

Unsupervised Machine Learning to Identify Risk Factors of Pyeloplasty Failure in Ureteropelvic Junction Obstruction.

Journal of endourology
In adult patients with ureteropelvic junction obstruction (UPJO), little data exist on predicting pyeloplasty outcome, and there is no unified definition of pyeloplasty success. As such, defining pyeloplasty success retrospectively is particularly v...

Current advances in the use of artificial intelligence in predicting and managing urological complications.

International urology and nephrology
BACKGROUND: Artificial intelligence (AI) has emerged as a promising avenue for improving patient care and surgical outcomes in urological surgery. However, the extent of AI's impact in predicting and managing complications is not fully elucidated.

From Diagnosis to Precision Surgery: The Transformative Role of Artificial Intelligence in Urologic Imaging.

Journal of endourology
The multidisciplinary nature of artificial intelligence (AI) has allowed for rapid growth of its application in medical imaging. Artificial intelligence algorithms can augment various imaging modalities, such as X-rays, CT, and MRI, to improve image ...

Purely robotic ileocystoplasty in children: why not? First case in Spain.

Cirugia pediatrica : organo oficial de la Sociedad Espanola de Cirugia Pediatrica
