In this interview from EAU26 in London, UROLUTS chief editor Dr. Manuela Tutolo and Prof. Tufan Tarcan discusses the role of urodynamic testing in functional urology, particularly results from the FUTURE trial.
Despite suggestions of non-inferiority versus clinical assessment alone, these two experts emphasize that urodynamics remain valuable when used selectively, especially before invasive treatments. The discussion highlights methodological limitations of recent studies, the importance of proper test execution, and individualised patient assessment. Overall, a tailored, evidence-based approach is recommended to optimise treatment decisions and avoid unnecessary or inappropriate interventions.
