Some thoughts I wanted to share given the recent Navier-Stokes OAI debacle.
"As a profession we must be cautious that we do not betray ourselves for nothing. Or worse, for convenience!"

💬 Perspective: For cognitive medical tasks, #AI alone may exceed physician-only and physician-AI hybrid care, raising policy questions about workflow, liability, regulation, reimbursement, and medical education.

Grateful to sit down with my friend & colleague @abhinav_khanna at @MayoUrology for #BeyondtheBiopsy Episode 4. The applications of #AI in surgery are, some say, “game-changing” for urologic oncology…but are they? Some tough questions answered in this episode.
✨In Episode 4 of #BeyondtheBiopsy, Dr. @NitinYerram sits down with Dr. @abhinav__khanna, of @MayoUrology, to explore how #AI is being used to transform operative video into actionable data, highlighting two of its most promising applications: surgical analytics and clinical decision support: guoncologynow.com/post/episo…

A novel expansion of AUA FUTURE program in a conference-based mentoring dyad format is feasible, mutually beneficial, and increases mentee commitment to urology rotations and residency applications. Outstanding work by @RanveerVasdev @MSemins to expand impact of AUA FUTURE #AUA26
📣 Join @MayoUrology for the Monday morning poster sessions!

New in our partnership with @DGlaucomflecken: the KEYNOTE-905 trial evaluated enfortumab vedotin plus pembrolizumab as perioperative therapy in patients with muscle-invasive bladder cancer who were ineligible to receive cisplatin. Read the full study for free: nej.md/DrG40

📣 We are excited and thrilled to announce APOLLO, a healthcare system-scale multimodal temporal foundation model for virtual patient representations.
Trained on 25 billion clinical events from 7.2 million patients across 33 years and 28 modalities, APOLLO learns a unified atlas of medicine. Turning labs, notes, pathology images, medications, and diagnoses into coherent, computable longitudinal trajectories. APOLLO is disease-agnostic by design, a single model that learns the shared structure underlying human health and disease across every specialty, modality, and stage of care.
The possibilities are enormous: earlier risk prediction, treatment response modeling, clinical trial matching, biomarker discovery, and a new generation of agentic systems built on rich patient representations.

That’s a wrap on #EAU26! My first time to this amazing meeting. A few gems I’m going to take back across the pond:
📍 PET modified txt in 1/5 with UTUC
📍 For similar survival curves consider nadir + 0.5 after PCa s/p RT
📍 Accurate online content = fight the men’s heath crisis

First-in-human Nectin4-targeted fluorescence imaging for TURBT #EAU26 @urotoday
• Diagnostic accuracy: 96% vs 85.6% with WLC
• Tumor margin detection: 91.1% vs 72.2%
• Ex vivo biopsy accuracy: 96.3%
• Preclinical models doubled complete resection rates
Probe demonstrated a favorable safety profile

Google just dropped another banger!
the figures in this paper were drawn by the system described in the paper.
PaperBanana is an agentic framework that generates publication-ready academic illustrations from methodology descriptions.
no manual design, no Figma, just your method section and a caption.
here's how it works:
five specialized agents collaborate in sequence:
> Retriever: finds relevant reference diagrams from a curated set of NeurIPS papers. matches by visual structure, not topic.
> Planner: translates your methodology text into a detailed visual description using in-context learning.
> Stylist: applies aesthetic guidelines (color palettes, typography, layout) auto-summarized from hundreds of top-tier papers.
> Visualizer + Critic loop: generates the image, critiques it against source text, and refines. repeats for 3 rounds.
one surprising finding: randomly selected examples work nearly as well as semantically matched ones. what matters is showing the model what good diagrams look like, not finding the topically perfect reference.
in blind evaluations, humans preferred PaperBanana outputs nearly 3 out of 4 times.
it also extends to statistical plots using code-based generation for numerical precision.

Love this study. RUDOLPH 🦌 evaluates accuracy of the silly verbiage we use when communicating how far to move the patient for positioning
Will be using “a full send” for every lithotomy case moving forward

Ranveer Vasdev, MD, MS retweeted
How do you know how far to reposition your patient!?
"Around 6 inches"?
"a smidge"?

Our overview of and guidance for performance measures to evaluate medical AI is finally out!
- Stop bashing AUROC
- Calibration + clinical utility are key
- Plot risk distributions
- Classification measures are improper
