I follow my Uro on Twitter, which has led me to follow a community of Uro docs and RO docs. You can get a surprising amount of info by doing so, as they talk amongst themselves with you in the back row listening in. New treatments, complaining about failed procedures, what’s in store for the future, etc. Highly recommend dialing in.

Kind of surprised they do that in an 'open' Twitter thread. I understand they won't name names, but a patient might find out his case being discussed.

Posting pictures too.

A lot of last breaking radiology work. I’ll post a link.

They just had the annual urology convention, with lots of interesting Twitter posts with hashtag #AUA22 . Worth a scan.

Seems like it was a pretty good party. I hope had they had fun, since we all paid for it. smile

Link to a good tweet on a study that short course RT is good to go. Dr Zaorsky is worth following.

This one has a gif, from a urologist. Caption is

“Me when prostate cancer surgeons start talking about their postoperative ED rates"

The replies are interesting too.

A great Twitter thread on salvage RT by Dr. Zaorsky. He reads the journal articles for us.

Another good Twitter post, this one about physical therapy following a RALP, kegels, etc.

This Twitter post is about incontinence (using pads) two years after treatment, following surgery or SBRT. It’s 46% compared to 4%.
