What our study adds?
- The tendency of urology residents to use fluoroscopy in cases varies
according to the institution which they training in.
- Urology residents do not prefer to use too much fluoroscopy in an
operation (even if the operation can be completed in a single
session). Instead, they tend to afford more sessions for one
operation. In Turkey, this trend is more noticeable in urology
residents working in university hospitals than their colleagues
working in training and research hospitals.
- It is also noticeable that in Turkey, urology residents in university
hospitals are more wary of the harmful effects of fluoroscopy than
their colleagues working in training and research hospitals.
