Multicenter Study to Develop a Model to Identify Uric Acid Urinary Tract Stones Using CT and Lab Tests
Sponsor: Jian Zhuo
Summary
Urinary tract stones are a common condition affecting the kidney, ureter, bladder, and urethra. Uric acid stones represent an important subtype of urinary stones and require different prevention and treatment strategies compared with other stone types. However, accurate identification of uric acid stones before treatment remains challenging in routine clinical practice. This multicenter observational study aims to develop and validate a precision classification model to distinguish uric acid urinary tract stones from non-uric acid stones using multimodal parameters. These parameters include patients' clinical characteristics, laboratory test results, and computed tomography (CT) imaging features. Patients undergoing surgical treatment for urinary tract stones at participating centers will be enrolled. Stone composition determined by infrared spectroscopy after surgery will be used as the reference standard. By integrating clinical, laboratory, and imaging data, this study seeks to establish a practical and reliable model to improve the classification of uric acid stones and support individualized clinical management.
