title: [The modern professional image of the urologist].
abstract: The field of urology is in the process of transition: as a result of continuing advances in surgical methods, the change from open to endoscopic and laparoscopic operations to the point of robotic-assisted surgical procedures, urological operations are being revolutionized. This represents both a challenge and an opportunity for urology of the future. The author outlines the coming perspectives in our discipline.
