There is no restriction on duplication or disseminationof the material. Enclosed recommendations representa consensus view of the authors. They do notpreclude other options or approaches. Selection of simplified or extensive evaluation at initial visit. Apply a simplified evaluation in patients with single stoneepisode without risk. Consider an extensive evaluation inpatients with recurrent episode or first episode at risk.SCHEME FOR DIAGNOSTIC EVALUATION H i s t o ry constituting increased risk for stone development. Ifp resent in patients with first episode, an extensiveevaluation is advised. If absent, a simplified evaluation maybe applied.RISK ASSESSMENT First Episode
