"The success rate is amazing," says Shaya Taghechian, MD, of Bulkamid.

“What we've shown with our data and through our experience, is that by using this technology, we're able to preserve more normal kidney and disrupt less of the normal kidney,” says Michael D. Stifelman, MD.

"One of the biggest considerations we have in imaging pediatric patients is radiation exposure," says Katherine Chan, MD, MPH.

“This study really bridges the gap between STAMPEDE and PROTEUS and provides the opportunity for patients to get either surgery or radiation therapy,” says Kelly L. Stratton, MD, FACS.

"Kidney stones in children are quite a bit different than in adults," says Katherine Chan, MD, MPH.

“There was a consistent request for more access to knowledge [and] access to guidelines,” says Jessica L. Wenzel, MD, MPH.

“What we found was that pyuria, or the incidence of white blood cells in the urinalysis, was a big driver for treating patients with antibiotics,” says Briony K. Varda, MD, MPH.

"You have to have a passion for it. If you have a passion for it, it's easy to do," says Shaya Taghechian, MD.

"We found a 25% incidence of cognitive impairment just based on this telephone test," says Jacqueline Zillioux, MD.

"I think that having some clinical guidelines would be very much beneficial for us in midlevel practice," says Adity Dutta, MSN, AGACNP-BC.

"Unique to this study is that we'll be using Orgovyx," says Kelly L. Stratton, MD, FACS.

"I'd be curious to see a validated study on whether prostate sizes have increased over time. I suspect the answer will be yes," says Joseph Song, MD.

"Pediatric patients do have a somewhat heterogeneous or variable presentation of their stone disease. A lot of that is dependent upon their age," says Katherine Chan, MD, MPH.

Ben H. Chew, MD, MSc, FRCSC, and Naeem Bhojani, MD, FRCSC, on Urology Times' recent survey of reusable vs disposable cystoscopes.

"I can say that I do see a vast number of different types of patient populations," says Adity Dutta, MSN, AGACNP-BC.

Lee discusses findings from a study presented at the 2024 American Urological Association Annual Meeting.

“We found that two-thirds or female respondents did not know their dosimeter doses during pregnancy,” says Jessica L. Wenzel, MD, MPH.

"I think pelvic pain is 1 of the areas that really needs more attention," says Gamal M. Ghoniem, MD, FACS, ABU/FPMRS.

"There is a severe lack of treatment when it comes to women's sexual health," says Shaya Taghechian, MD.

"We provide surgical treatments for kidney stones, and we also help patients manage their stones medically; for example, helping them perhaps with spontaneous passage of their stones," says Katherine Chan, MD, MPH.

“We also saw differences in the average pay per weekday of hospital call; 32% of men reporting receiving over $500 per day [of] weekend hospital call, but only 18% of women reporting the same,” says Andrew M. Harris, MD.

"We aim to provide the best quality care we can at the locations closest to our patients," says Edward M. Schaeffer, MD, PhD.

"Especially for prostate cancer, some of the sexual side effects, it's tough to talk about that when you're talking to your uncle or your brother who has it," says Joseph Song, MD.

"When they said that they value privacy over cost and convenience, I think that is the clearest sign that the stigma for men's health still exists," says Justin M. Dubin, MD.

“It's the next evolution of being able to provide precision care for our patients in the area of prostate cancer,” says Nitin K. Yerram, MD.

"We really need better options with the least side [amount of] effects for these patients," says Zhina Sadeghi, MD.
