Since the incidence seems to be similar as non-pregnant women, I'll be more unreasonable and propose everybody gets a CT for screening of asymptomatic kidney stones.
You get a CT! And you get a CT! Everybody gets a CT!
Sometimes it feels like you get only 2 types of patients:
#1
"Is in my record." Doesn't share anything else.
#2
. "Let's start with the day I was born, 70 years ago, it was a cloudy day in June..."

Key to tell who is who. Look at the one telling the other guy: You really need all those extra years to do meaningful basic science or clinical research. No, I don't mind the people I started Med School with are done with residency and are now they are my attendings. Not at all.

BPH is not a one-size-fits-all. My opinion is: Become a master of certain techniques and treat the patients that can benefit from your expertise, also learn to recognize the patients that won't and send them to the right person that can help them.

Every urologist in the U.S.A. learns that Hugh Hamptom Young was the father of Urology in the early 1900's; meanwhile Francisco Díaz de Alcalá wrote the first treaty on Urology (in Spanish!) in the late 1500's and nobody mentions this.

Med studs after telling every admissions committee how much they wanted to serve unpriviledged communities. Random person : So your going into primary care right?
Med stud:
These are the U.S. Army’s core values. The acronym is LDRSHIP. This wall is on my way to my office. Is a reminder of what you should stand for as a Soldier.
I think it is important to identify your core values. Do you agree?
FINALLY - what I have been looking forward to prove for 20 years: the detection performance of DRE for PCa is so weak that we can forego this exam. Hope the guidelines take this evidence to stop recommending DRE for PCa screening/early detection.

Main reason: Dogma. Generations of urologist taught that prostate cancer is hormone sensitive (which it is) since Huggins in 1940... but is it a GG6 cancer? Should we drop the tittle prostate cancer for a GG6?
