“What's novel about the iTind system is [that] it's one of the first treatments that [can] be deployed through a flexible cystoscope, as well as the fact that there is no permanent energy or permanent foreign body that's left within the prosthetic urethra,” says Bilal Chughtai, MD.

In this video, Bilal Chughtai, MD, discusses the advantages of the iTind system for patients with lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) secondary to BPH.
