About
Dr. Eric C. Ballon-Landa is a urologic surgeon and researcher whose work focuses on advancing surgical care for patients with complex kidney stone disease. His key research areas include intraoperative imaging, radiation safety, and quality improvement in endoscopic stone surgery. Dr. Ballon-Landa’s major contribution is the development and implementation of ultralow-dose intraoperative computed tomography (CT) during endoscopic stone procedures. In his landmark 2022 quality improvement project, he demonstrated that this novel imaging technique can significantly reduce perioperative radiation exposure for patients while simultaneously improving stone-free rates and decreasing the number of required surgical interventions. This work represents a critical step toward safer, more efficient management of large renal calculi. With over 7 citations, his research has already begun to influence clinical protocols and patient outcomes. Dr. Ballon-Landa’s commitment to integrating advanced imaging with evidence-based quality improvement positions him as an emerging leader in endourology, dedicated to minimizing patient harm while maximizing surgical efficacy.
