Produktbeschreibung
This book provides up-to-date information on the newest technological developments in the field of urology. An extensive and comprehensive book that provides the ultimate reference in urological tools, methods and techniques, this text is written by the most highly acclaimed experts known in their field. A wide and diverse range of the most major technologies are covered including laser prostatectomy, flexible robotics, prostate focal therapy and renal cryo-ablation.

New Technologies in Urology is an educational, easy-reference work, covering specific surgical techniques and patient care, supported by a number of illustrations and clear summary tables.
Technology seems to be an integral part of modern living. Urologists have over the years embraced new technological advances for patient beneft. On some occasions, however, the initial enthusiasm in something new has failed to endure rigorous scientifc scrutiny. Thus, while being technological leaders, we urologists know better than most other surgical speci- ties that what is new is not necessarily good. This textbook is aimed at urologists and surgeons at all levels and has contributions from international experts. The topics vary from robotics to lasers to single port laparoscopy. The comprehensive chapters should be of equal interest to uro-oncologists and those involved in treating benign urological diseases. While the contents are meant to bring the reader up to date with technological advances, the authors have attempted to balance their enthusiasm with basic science, translational research, and clinical outcomes. It will be obvious that some of the s- jects mentioned here, such as nanotechnology, are still evolving, and it will be a while before they undergo clinical trials that establish their position in clinical medicine. We hope you enjoy reading this book as much as we have enjoyed creating it.

Rezensionen
From the reviews: "The book not only brings readers up-to-date on the cutting-edge technologies in the field of urology, it also provides well-balanced discussions of basic science and clinical outcomes. Physicians involved in the delivery of care to urological patients with benign or malignant disease will greatly appreciate this book. The text is supported by a number of clear illustrations and concise summary tables that make it easy to follow and understand." (Jaspreet Singh, Doody's Review Service, June, 2010)
