It is interesting. Are there, you know, and it's part of the AUA guidelines and in such a strong way that there aren't more companies that have come down the pike to try and do the same thing, whether it's Olympus or other, you know, there are other imaging companies, right, that do optics. Are there newer ones coming down the pike that you're aware of? No, that kind of fits with this technology.

Yeah. And I'm sure as more time goes on, the quality of the imaging will only improve even more. I mean, that's where the technology is going and should go to enhance detection. So back to our workflow, I think we were stacking them in the front end, having your nurses educated, knowing so, you know, the nurse knows what to put in when and timing it and so on and so forth.

Yeah. In what time span was that? Recommendation is about six weeks. And then, you know, let's talk a little bit about, too, upward migration of staging and the numbers around that and how blue light has, you know, sort of opened our eyes.
