ntroduction: Urinary lithiasis is defining as a condition characterized by the
formation of concretions in the kidneys or urinary excretory tract. We aimed to
study professional practice in CT urinary lithiasis at CHUYO. Materials and
method: This was a descriptive cross-sectional study with retrospective data
collection covering 3 years from January 2017 to December 2019. Results: In
general, it was noted that CT scans in our environment provide all the elements needed by urologists to diagnose urinary lithiasis and its impact on the urinary system. However, there are shortcomings, particularly in terms of the accuracy of the shape and density of the stones in the CT scan reports, which does not make it easier for urologists to decide on treatment. Conclusion: Computed tomography plays a major role in the diagnosis and therapeutic management of urinary lithiasis, and its use needs to be improved in our context.
