PRedictive Accuracy of Initial Stone Burden Evaluation.
Sponsor: University Hospital, Ghent
Summary
This study is intended to be a prospective registry of patients undergoing any kind of stone treatment that have a pre-operative CT available. This imaging will be used to measure the stone burden in three different ways: in a single dimension (cumulative stone diameter), in two dimensions (surface area) and in three dimensions (volume).The primary purpose is to identify what way of measuring stone burden is most predictive of outcomes after stone treatment such as stone free status, operative time and complications.
Official title: Comparison of Predictive Value of Different Stone Burden Measurements for Outcomes After Urinary Stone Treatment.

Interventions
Computed Tomography, CSD
Measurement of the stone burden by cumulative stone diameter, the sum of linear longest diameters of all the stones to be treated within one patient as measured on the CT or by additional rendering software
Computed Tomography, SA
Measurement of the stone burden by surface area, the sum of surface areas of all the stones to be treated within one patient as measured on the CT or by additional rendering software
Computed Tomography, 3D
Measurement of the stone burden by volume of all the stones to be treated within one patient, as measured on the CT or by additional rendering software
