Urology
Diagnosis and treatment of diseases of the urinary tract and the male reproductive system.
Urology
The urinary tract and men's health
A specialty where early detection often changes the outlook.
Urology treats the kidneys, ureters, bladder and prostate, along with the male genital system: urinary infections, stones, benign prostatic enlargement and prostate cancer, voiding disorders, male infertility.
A substantial part of the work is screening. Prostate enlargement is treated far better when caught early, and prostate cancer detected in time is managed in very different circumstances from a late diagnosis. Collaboration with imaging and nephrology is constant.

Frequently asked questions
From what age should the prostate be screened?
Screening is usually discussed from the age of fifty, earlier where there is a family history. It combines a blood test with a clinical examination, and whether it is appropriate is assessed individually at the consultation.
How do I prepare for an ultrasound of the urinary tract?
You will be asked to arrive with a full bladder: drink about a litre of water in the hour before the examination and do not pass urine beforehand.
Is renal colic an emergency?
Yes. Severe, sudden pain in the flank, especially with fever, vomiting or an inability to pass urine, requires immediate care at the emergency department.
