    Retrograde intrarenal surgery (RIRS) is a key treatment for urolithiasis, but postoperative sepsis occurs in about 5% of cases.

  • 2

    Intraoperative intrarenal pressure (IRP) is a modifiable risk factor for post-RIRS sepsis and requires careful monitoring.

  • 3

    The LithoVue™ Elite ureteroscope enables real-time IRP monitoring, but direct measurements can be distorted by artifacts.

  • 4

    This study aims to quantify IRP artifacts during RIRS and develop an AI-based model for their detection and correction.

  • 5

    A robust correction system was created using synchronized endoscopic video and IRP data, employing advanced machine learning techniques.
