Abstract: Background To develop a machine learning (ML)-assisted model capable of accurately identifying patients with calculous pyonephrosis before making treatment decisions by integrating multiple clinical characteristics. Methods We retrospectively collected data from patients with obstructed hydronephrosis… read more here.

DOI: 10.21037/tau.2018.ab061
Abstract: Background To study the method of diffusion-weighted (DW) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in the differential diagnosis of uronephrosis and pyonephrosis. Methods The patients who were going to receive flexible ureteroscopy lithotripsy (f-URL) or percutaneous nephrolithotomy… read more here.
