Aim: Tendency, knowledge, awareness, and behavior patterns of urology residents in Turkey regarding the use of fluoroscopy may vary depending on the institutions. The study analyses and compares the awareness and tendencies of urology residents in university hospitals and training and research hospitals. Methods: In this qualitative research, a 13-question survey prepared using “Google Forms” as of 01.03.2021 was shared for four weeks in the “WhatsApp” application group, which includes 279 urology residents studying at university hospitals and training and research hospitals in Turkey. One hundred and thirteen participants, who completed the questionnaire were included in the study. The data was analyzed by comparing two groups: university hospitals (group 1) and training and research hospitals (group 2).
