Devices for Stone Management,he more commonly used devices include helical baskets, tipless baskets and reusable graspers. The choice of device may be determined by the stone size, location and the stone treatment strategy employed. Care must be taken not to pick up too large a fragment in a basket which might then become entra

Simulation and Ureteroscopy (URS),nsibility. Simulation has grown to play an increasingly important role in this process. The endourologic skill of ureteroscopy has been a particular focus of simulator development. Simulation platforms based on human cadavers, animal models, benchtop models, and virtual reality have all demonstrated
