(UroToday.com) At the 2021 American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) Genitourinary (GU) Cancers Symposium during the session on practical applications of novel imaging and genomic approaches in the management of clinically localized prostate cancer, Dr. Anuradha Gopalan discussed redefining high-risk prostate cancer beyond clinical parameters.
