As always, innovative work from the BurstWave Lithotripsy (BWL) group. Comminution in 21 of 23 targetable stones in pilot. Caveats: 19 of 41 patients excluded for inability to visualize on U/S, but wide potential applicability! Mathew Sorensen Jonathan Harper MD Ian Metzler, MD MTM Journal of Urology



Salient commentary from Hyung Joon KIM (Andrew KIM) Khurshid Ghani on recent Thulium vs Ho:YAG stone study. Authors are congratulated on RCT, with limitation that the Thulium model used was "heavyweight" (60W) vs "lightweight" (30W) Ho:YAG. More trials to come I'm sure! doi.org/10.1016/j.euru…
