Planning Operative Strategy Using a Digital Renal Artery Clamping Tool

A proposed new tool ('DIPLANN-tool' - Digital Planning in Nephrectomy) for predicting kidney perfusion zones on a segmented 3D model during robot-assisted partial nephrectomy (RAPN) for localized renal cancer demonstrated high accuracy when planning selective clamping (SC) for RAPN. However, the tool's clinical added value still needs to be confirmed. Therefore, a randomized controlled trial using a study and control group is the preferred study design. Experimental group: the use of the DIPLANN-tool + conventional computed tomography (CT) imaging for preoperative planning and perioperative g
