Dr. Paul H. Chung, MD was invited to moderate the reconstructive urology scientific session at the 77th Mid-Atlantic Section of the American Urological Association Annual Meeting. As a moderator, Dr. Chung set the tone for the program and ensured discussion was appropriate and educational. He also presented his work on the utility of contrast-enhanced ultrasound as a novel method to characterize urethral strictures. Contrast-enhanced ultrasound may better characterize urethral strictures in a more patient-friendly manner compared to cystoscopy and x-ray retrograde urethrography.
