Artificial Intelligence in Urology, an Issue of Urologic Clinics Volume 51-1

Dr. Andrew J. Hung is an expert in robotic, laparoscopic, and traditional open surgery for diseases of the adrenal, kidney, ureter, bladder, and prostate. He is a recognized leader in the validation and development of innovative surgical simulation technologies. To train the next generation of urologic surgeons, he developed the first-ever procedure-specific simulation for robotic surgery. Supported by both industry and the National Institutes of Health, Dr. Hung has also become a leading innovator in the development of automated performance metrics for robotic surgery. His collaboration with data scientists has harnessed machine learning algorithms to better predict robotic surgical outcomes. Dr. Hung has produced several first-author and senior-author papers on surgical assessment and training in leading journals and is a regular peer-reviewer for leading urologic journals. He currently serves as the first Consulting Editor on Artificial Intelligence for the British Journal of Urology International.
