BJU International is one of the most highly respected medical journals in the world, with a truly international range of published papers which is unique amongst all urology journals. Every issue gives invaluable practical information in the form of original articles, mini-review articles, investigative urology articles, correspondence and book reviews; as well as 'Surgery Illustrated', a "kaleidoscope of surgical techniques, open and laparoscopic, from both paediatric and adult urology", and the very popular 'Conversations' piece. BJU International is fully sectionalised and in full colour making it easier to use whether you are browsing or searching for something specific.
