Publisher's Synopsis
Modern techniques in interventional radiology are being used increasingly frequently in operations on the genitourinary tract, enabling the minimally invasive and cost-effective removal of stone of the kidney and bladder. The contributors to this book have all developed expertise in a specific field of uroradiological investigation and diagnosis. Each chapter is a personal portrayal of the author's experience, rather than a review of the existing literature. Included are details of the equipment used as well as descriptions of the use of lasers in the urinary tract. Methods of diagnosis that involve physiological measurements are discussed, as are the commonly seen endoprostheses that are inserted into the uninary tract.
