Abstract:
The research highlights and latest developments on urinary tract stones at the 2023 American Urological Association (AUA) annual meeting mainly include several aspects, including stone metabolism and basic research, drug treatment and dietary prevention, application of new technologies in lithotripsy, development of new equipment, and innovation in the combination of artificial intelligence and medical industry. In term of basic research, new breakthroughs have been made in the formation mechanism of Randall plaque and stones microbiology and proteomics. The update and iteration of new lithotripsy instruments make minimally invasive technology efficient and safe. The widespread application and in-depth expansion of artificial intelligence machine learning and imageomics have shown strong advantages in preoperative diagnosis and postoperative prediction. The drug treatment and dietary prevention for genetic related stone diseases have been given special attention. In addition, public social media platforms and medical self media have begun to provide more active science popularization and education for the public.
