@kjdelay1 Stents!

[Ross J Mason @masonrossj]

@RealMed3 @AshleyGWinter This is not true at all. The CPSTF published that nearly a decade ago and never updated it. The #CUA 2018 recommends shared decision making, similar to almost every other national organization. PSA screening plays a role in Canada.

[Ross J Mason @masonrossj]

@alextatem Absolutely it’s different. When teaching a resident you can switch off the teaching at a critical/difficult point and focus. Much more pressure to continue teaching during live surgery. IMO it shouldn’t play a role in surgery Ed. We stopped using surgical ‘theatres’ 100 years ago

[Ross J Mason @masonrossj]

@kjdelay1 Can you explain what you mean hear?Interested in this but not sure I follow.

I was just sent this from a patient - omg for anyone who thought "prostatectomy comedy" is an oxymoron, give this the next 2.5 minutes of your full attention! Phenomenal. Many thanks @MarshSongs. #pcsm #prostatecancer #UroSoMe

@alextatem @daviesbj @JuddMoul @urogeek @zklaassen_md Here @DalUrology we have an ongoing RCT comparing a multifaceted post-op rehab program to SOC (nothing). Under the stellar investigators @GabrielaIDr and @RobRutledgeMD. Positive patient feedback thus far. Stay tuned for results.
