World Congress of Endourology and Uro-Technology: Webinar 7 (2021)

December 11, 2021

Minimally invasive urology encompasses highly technologic and rapidly evolving minimally invasive treatment options. As such, practitioners are in need of a forum that introduces state-of-the-art techniques, technologies and medical management strategies from both an evidence-based and technical skills standpoint.

Learning Objectives

At the conclusion of the 2021 Annual Meeting, participants will be able to:

  • Describe recent developments in the medical management, non-invasive and minimally invasive surgical management of urologic diseases.
  • Integrate the latest guidelines on the management of urologic conditions into clinical practice.
  • Identify new technologies for the management of benign and malignant urologic conditions.
  • Incorporate new techniques into surgical practice for a variety of urologic problems.
  • Analyze outcome data and critically appraise medical and surgical options for the treatment of urologic conditions using evidence-based medicine.
