Thank you so much. why are these the most important things, right? They're pretty specialized there, the questions. And I see why they're in themselves important, but there are lots of questions that weren't asked. I mean, so the first one, you know, dealing, there are two buckets I saw, endourology bucket and then the sexual health bucket. The first one was, you know, the use of double J stents.

that so many practicing urologists really prefer using double J stents when they do even a simple ureteroscopic procedure, they'd still lead up a stent rather than doing it stentless, right? That not many people in the country are doing it stentless yet. And was there anything in the data that, or your other discussions about why that was an important question? Yeah, to have that answered? Yeah.

Well, that makes sense. There's always a rotating pecking order, right? And then to your point about newer technology, there were questions about how many people are using homium lasers versus if they're going to invest in some new laser. Are they transitioning to the thulium laser? I thought that was very interesting. You know, almost half.

of people were saying they were going to have a new purchase in the future and it was gonna be Thulium. So just showing the utilization of the newer technology that's here. So, and another interesting thing in the endourology bucket was how many people are using strings on their stents. Now I didn't see a timeline associated with that.

I know personally that determines for me if I'm gonna leave a string or not. You know, if I think it's gonna stay in 24 or 48 hours, string it. But if not, I'm not gonna have a string on it. But how many people really preferred doing a cystoscopic scent removal in the office rather than leaving any kind of a string? And even those who had a string still having the provider remove it, right?

Having them come into the office so that the provider can pull the string. It was about 25% versus 20% of the patient pulling it. So I think things like that are really interesting to see different practice patterns that people are doing. Is there anything more that you're looking at that you're going to use this data for?

So that was a question I had. Who has access to this data? If they have an idea, is it hard for them to get some of the raw data to be able to look at? Or is there oversight of their utilization of the raw data?
