title: Imaging guidance in minimally invasive prostatectomy.
abstract: Minimally invasive prostatectomy, such as laparoscopic and robot-assisted prostatectomy, has become more popular, with similar short-term outcomes as open radical retropubic prostatectomy series. The purpose of this article is to review different imaging modalities that have been developed with a goal of further improving the surgical outcomes in minimally invasive prostatectomy.
