Episode Details

In this second episode of the special podcast series on "Preoperative, intraoperative and postoperative new technological tools for urologists", Assoc. Prof. Juan Gómez Rivas (ES) talks to the distinguished Prof. Dmitry Enikeev (IL) about new lasers that are shaping the future of endourology. 

Prof. Enikeev elaborates on how lasers work, and the different types of lasers (thulium, holmium, green light). He shares details on usage, settings and the important aspects of distance of incision and speed. 

Cutting-edge lasers in endourology have significantly improved the management of kidney stones, bladder tumours and other urological disorders. They allow for safer and faster procedures, reducing patient recovery time and hospital stays. Additionally, the improved energy delivery systems enable better control and accuracy during surgery, leading to fewer complications and improved outcomes.
