A calculator to predict the risk of a second symptomatic kidney stone after the first symptomatic stone. The tool has 11 questions to assess kidney stone patients' risk within two, five or 10 years

"If we knew which patients were at high risk for another symptomatic kidney stone, then we could better advise patients on whether to follow stone prevention diets or take medications," Dr. Andrew Rule, of the Mayo Clinic
