Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

BACKGROUND: Flexible ureteroscopy is used for diagnosing and treating upper urinary tract diseases. Despite technological advances in making flexible ureteroscopes smaller, they suffer from a grainy image. Therefore, new technology with better resolution is needed. NEW TECHNOLOGY: The new Invisio DUR-D digital flexible ureteroscope from Gyrus ACMI was tested. The tip houses dual LED-driven light carriers, which obviates the need for an external light source, thus eliminating the risk of drape fires and patient burns. A 1-mm digital camera at the tip eliminates the need for fragile low-resolution fiberoptics and provides superior resolution. Since there are no external cameras or light cables, the DUR-D is much lighter (505 g compared with 1012 g). Laser detection system deactivates the laser to prevent accidental misfiring of the laser within the ureteroscope. CONCLUSIONS: The latest generation of digital ureteroscopes provides superior resolution and safety. Long term use is needed to test its durability.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
