Urology CME: Diagnostic Approaches, Therapeutic Advances

Comprehensive Review of Urology provides current, relevant information on adult and pediatric disorders of the male and female urinary tract, the male reproductive system, and the kidney. Led by renowned urologist Aria F. Olumi, MD, lecturers use guideline-driven information that will improve your approach to screening, staging, diagnosis, and treatment. You’ll get expert take-home points from each continuing medical education lecture, including:

• MRI of Prostate Cancer. MRI is effective in detecting focal areas of highgrade prostate cancer, providing accurate locoregional staging, and guiding targeted biopsies.
• Kidney Cancer – Laparoscopic Management. Laparoscopic and robotic nephrectomy is now the standard care for most renal cell carcinoma patients. It offers significant advantages in morbidity while maintaining oncologic outcomes of open surgery.
• The Etiology and Treatment of Pelvic Organ Prolapse. Vaginal wall descent is a normal part of aging; however, once the bulge protrudes past the hymen, most women are symptomatic.
• Advances in Systemic Therapy for Management of Muscle Invasive Bladder Cancer. Neoadjuvant chemotherapy remains the standard of care for muscle-invasive bladder cancer.
• And many more!
