Retroperitoneal Robotic Partial Nephrectomy
This unique one day training course combines live surgery Robotic-assisted Retroperitoneal Partial Nephrectomy procedures with intraoperative ultrasound imaging and 3D vascular imaging. Live audio-visual feeds from theatre will transmit the surgical cases directly to the seminar room with two way interaction.
- Develop your ultrasound technique and operative protocol
- Understand the value of preoperative surgical planning with Ultrasound, CT imaging, Doppler and 3D/ICG vascular mapping to determine the optimal approach for nephron sparing surgery
- Understand the techniques of real-time intraoperative ultrasound imaging of the kidney to identify an endophytic tumour or mark the margins of a tumour prior to resection
- Understand the differences between transperitoneal and retroperitoneal
- What does Computer vision and AI offer in robotic surgery
The ‘Tips and Tricks’ presentation offers an insight into the challenges frequently encountered with suggestions and solutions to overcome problems.
This course delivers a complete 360 degree overview from a highly experienced team of professionals. The course is aimed at Consultants wishing to develop their expertise and improve surgical outcomes with their use of intraoperative Ultrasound and 3D imaging during Robotic assisted Retroperitoneal Partial Nephrectomy.
