Fluoroscopy time (FT) was obtained from radiology reports for each patient, and clinical data were obtained from chart review. Nine patients were excluded (three unconfirmed FTs, four staghorn calculi, one ectopic kidney, and one multiple ureteral strictures). Seventy-six patients were included in the study. Univariate and multivariate linear regression were used to identify factors that determined FT.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      The patient cohort was 65.8% male with a mean age of 52.7 years. Mean FT was 183\u2009s, and mean surgical time was 68.4\u00b129 minutes. Mean stone size was 10\u00b15\u2009mm in the greatest dimension. A large proportion of patients (50%) had renal stones, multiple stones were present in 31.6% of cases, and 22.3% of stones were radiolucent. Cases were equally distributed between surgeons A and B, and 46% of patients had preoperative stents. On multivariate analysis, increased FT was independently associated with surgeon A (104 additional seconds per case,\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">P<\/jats:italic>\n                      &lt;0.001), longer duration of surgery (14\u2009s per 10 minutes,\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">P<\/jats:italic>\n                      &lt;0.001), and male patients (54\u2009s per procedure,\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">P<\/jats:italic>\n                      =0.02).
