AB  - The American Board of Urology (ABU) has a very distinct 
mission that is often misunderstood by urologists in the 
community. In addition, there is an enormous number of 
acronyms associated with the ABU. In this paper, I will 
attempt to explain the workings of the ABU and to defi ne 
and explain the acronyms. <br/>
The mission of the ABU is to act for the benefi t of the public 
to insure a high quality, safe, effi cient, and ethical practice 
of urology by establishing and maintaining standards of 
certifi cation for urologists. The ABU views that it truly 
serves the public, and decisions made by the ABU are 
measured against the public’s best interests.
