The popularity of automatic photogrammetric techniques has promoted many experiments in underwater scenarios leading to quite impressive visual results, even by non-experts. Despite these achievements, a deep understanding of camera and lens behaviors as well as optical phenomena involved in underwater operations is fundamental to better plan field campaigns and anticipate the achievable results. The paper presents a geometric investigation of a consumer grade underwater camera housing, manufactured by NiMAR and equipped with a 7'' dome port. After a review of flat and dome ports, the work analyzes, using simulations and real experiments, the main optical phenomena involved when operating a camera underwater. Specific aspects which deal with photogrammetric acquisitions are considered with some tests in laboratory and in a swimming pool. Results and considerations are shown and commented.

Article Synopsis
- * In a randomized controlled trial with 18 participants, one group received the specialized hearing aid training while the control group underwent a similar, less relevant training.
- * Results showed that the experimental group significantly improved their practical skills with hearing aids, achieving an average score increase from 59.50% to 95.84%, unlike the control group, which only slightly improved.

Introduction: The introduction of Single-Port (SP) platform opened the field to new surgical options, allowing to perform major urological robot-assisted procedures extraperitoneally and with a supine patient positioning (1-3). Nevertheless, a comprehensive description of different supine access options is still lacking (4-6). In this light, we provided a step-by-step guide of SP extraperitoneal supine access options also exploring preliminary surgical outcomes.

We experimentally demonstrate that optical aberrations at non-normal incidence drastically reduce the intensity of the inelastic signal and deteriorate the system resolution. At a 2.

Objective: We present a novel technique to perform single-port (SP) robot-assisted partial cystectomy with excision of the urachal remnant and bilateral pelvic lymph node dissection for urachal adenocarcinoma (1-7).
Materials And Methods: A 41-year-old male presented to the clinic for multiple episodes of hematuria and mucousuria. Office cystoscopy revealed a small solitary tumor at the dome of the bladder, with a diagnostic bladder biopsy revealing a tubule-villous bladder adenoma.

Urachal anomalies and their associated disease processes are quite rare in pediatric populations and even rarer in adults. Although often asymptomatic, patients with symptoms can be treated with a combination of surveillance, antibiotics, and sometimes surgical resection. In this case, we describe our experience using the single-port robotic approach for the excision of a symptomatic urachal remnant.
