What if your laser could recognize the difference between stone and tissue in real time?
This new pre-clinical study with @FZorzi and @OTRAXER shows that StoneSense™-guided Thulium Fiber Laser lithotripsy can:
🎯 Prevent soft-tissue ablation
🎯 Maintain >97% stone ablation efficiency
🎯 Achieve up to 100% sensitivity for stone detection
🎯 Produce complete dusting without visible mucosal injury
Smarter energy delivery may represent the next frontier in safer endourological stone surgery.

🚨 New publication in World Journal of Urology! 🚨
Proud to share our retrospective study on intraoperative urine cultures during flexible ureteroscopy (FURS) for renal stones.
Key finding: a positive pre-laser intraoperative culture (bladder &/or renal pelvis) was strongly associated with postoperative infectious complications, including sepsis (OR 6.1 for any infection, 8.9 for severe).
Preoperative bladder cultures alone fell short in flagging at-risk patients. Pre-laser sampling may be a valuable tool to guide targeted antibiotic therapy. 🔬

Innovation in endourology at #EAU26.
A clinical study presented in London explored a novel integrated system combining flexible DISS ureteroscopy with thulium fiber laser lithotripsy, designed to enable simultaneous irrigation and aspiration during flexible URS. The system aims to improve fragment evacuation and optimize stone dust management during endoscopic treatment.
In this prospective single-center study including patients with renal and ureteral stones, the technology demonstrated effective lithotripsy performance while allowing real-time suction and pressure control—an approach that may further refine efficiency and safety in flexible ureteroscopy.
A Genova le Scuole di specializzazione di Urologia a confronto nell'ambito del XXIII congresso della SUN (Società di Urologia Nuova). Presenti per l' @UrologiaTrieste@UniTrieste : @FZorzi, dott. Carmelo Morreale ed il dott. Giulio Rossin
@Trombetta_Carl@UrologiaTrieste@UniTrieste It was such a pleasure to take part at this well designed&influential event together with my most experienced teacher and mentor, Prof. Trombetta. I’ll be forever grateful for his teachings&insights that have been forming me over time🙏👨⚕️
Than you for the chance @BurloGarofolo
