Nephrolithiasis and Urolithiasis (Kidney Stones)
Overview Nephrolithiasis refers to stones within the kidney, whereas urolithiasis includes stones anywhere in the urinary tract. Stones form when urine becomes supersaturated with poorly soluble substances that crystallise, aggregate and are retained within the renal collecting system. Most urinary stones contain calcium, usually calcium oxalate with or without calcium phosphate. Other important types include…

Our mission
Medical science is complex. Understanding it should feel possible.
Armando Hasudungan turns difficult medical science into clear visual explanations and connected learning experiences—so learners can see the whole picture, remember what matters and find a clearer way forward.





See it clearly
Turn abstract processes and invisible relationships into something the learner can picture.
Connect the pieces
Build understanding around how concepts fit together—not a pile of isolated facts.
Make it useful
Help learners move from explanation to recall, revision and the next logical step.
What clarity feels like
When the topic stops being a blur.
Learners do not come back because the subject became easy. They come back because the explanation gave them a picture they could work with.
“Armando's teaching style gives me the foundational knowledge.
“The notes I make during his videos help me retain everything better.
“The drawings are amazing and super easy to remember.
Coming soon: the AH study platform
The explanation is only the start.
The free library helps you find a clear explanation. The AH platform is being built to help you connect the resources, follow a clearer path and check what actually stuck.
- Watch in a focused, ad-free study environment.
- Move between connected videos, notes, diagrams and questions.
- Know what belongs next instead of rebuilding the study path yourself.
- Test your understanding while the topic is still fresh.
New and worth a look
Keep building the picture.
Deep Neck Infection Causes, specific syndromes and symptoms, Complications & Treatment
A structured anatomical and clinical overview of deep neck space infections, detailing fascial anatomy, microbiology, common causative syndromes such as Ludwig angina and peritonsillar abscess, and management principles for medical professionals.
