The Department of Urology aims to be involved in advanced scientific knowledge through translational research practices. A substantial inter-university collaborative study with Karnataka State University, Dharward, uses the FTIR method to analyse renal calculi, improving precision in treating stone disease in this region. In addition, the department is conducting eight ongoing research studies across urological disciplines, complimenting its dedication to clinical innovation and academic excellence.
The Department of Urology at BLDE (Deemed to be University) is equipped with state-of-the-art infrastructure and cutting-edge technology to deliver comprehensive urological care. Facilities include a 60-watt TFL Laser, 4K Endocamera system, Dornier ESWL, flexible endoscopic instruments, and a dedicated Urodynamics Lab.
