The Two-Point Technique of Fluoroscopy during the Urological Procedure: Is Really Necessary?

Nowadays the common use of diagnostic and therapeutic ionizing radiation increases worries about excessive occupational and patient exposure. The novel fluoroscopic-guided endoscopic procedures can diminish radiation dose during urologic procedures. A “two-point technique (TPT)” is defined in which...
