It is exciting to see studies such as this one in which elegant technology was applied to improve medical decision making by using presumably more accurate means of prediction. In this case the example is machine learning to predict stone-free status after single session shock wave lithotripsy to treat ureteral stones. If the idea of seeing what machine learning can do for decision making does not excite you, just watch AlphaGo (DeepMind, London, United Kingdom) on Netflix ®!
