Abstract:
:One of the most significant developments in imaging technology has been the process of digitalization. By incorporating currently available digital imaging equipment into surgical practice, urologists can be assured of obtaining real-time video images with optimal clarity and detail. In addition, one can efficiently capture and store still images that are crisper and sharper than their analog counterparts. These factors greatly improve the diagnostic capabilities and organization of today's endourologist.
