Always thankful for the opportunity to engage with our amazing med students Albany Med Health System - the annual Urology/Medical Students For Choice vasectomy workshop is always a hit! #UroSoMe #MedEd #Urology

TY ⁦Mike Leveridge⁩ for organizing the Upstate NY (& Kingston) resident meeting. Loved our ⁦Urological Institute@AlbanyMed⁩ resident presentations.

It was such an honor to be the 2024 Streem VP Urological Institute@AlbanyMed . Barry Kogan has built such a great program w/ wonderful residents and top notch faculty. Always fun to rile up the old guard 💂‍♀️and put myself in the hot seat 🥵 and push the envelope. Thanks for the memories.

Enjoyed Badar M. Mian, MD presentation of #PROBE_PC trial.

Disease detection update: **NO DIFFERENCE** 😳

Such honesty about the travails of trying to run an RCT when everyone thought they already knew the answer!

Thanks for shout out to TRANSLATE Trial 🙏

Infectious complications after prostate biopsy between transperineal & transrectal approach?

Prof Peter Albers summarized important new trials - thanks patients & trialists for this data 🙏🏼

Looking forward to more this kinds of trials 👍🏼 #EBM #EAU24

PS Nice infection session!

#PROBE_PC trial discussant from Brian F. Chapin. Thought provoking summary of what we now know (& what we still don't)

=>surprising equivalence in infection & detection (but TP may be worse for posterior)

Still don't know re cost/tolerance/HRQoL... also ? trials under-powered

Urological Institute@AlbanyMed had the pleasure of hosting Igor Sorokin as our visiting Streem professor! Fascinating discussions of advancements like Single Port Robotics, suction sheaths, and surgical research ethics. Great learning from an Albany alum! #UroSoMe #Albanyurology #streamteam

Great to have Igor Sorokin , our former resident as our Stephen Streem Visiting Professor, discussing minimally invasive surgery for benign and malignant prostate disease.
Igor lovesss his SP robot 💕
