Collaboration is key
Intensifying links across urological specialties and medical disciplines on the one hand, and the practical use of recent research findings in everyday clinical practice on the other, were among the recurring messages given by experts, opinion leaders, and speakers during the congress.
Increasing standardisation
During the souvenir session, the EAU Policy on Live Surgery was presented by the EAU Live Surgery Committee. With the introduction of a strict code of conduct for all EAU-organised live surgery events, this policy has established a standardised set of requirements which safeguard the safety of the patient as well as the educational value of the event.
