Robotic Transrectal Computed Tomographic Ultrasound with Artificial Neural Network Analysis: First Validation and Comparison with MRI-Guided Biopsies and Radical Prostatectomy.

There is still a lack of availability of high-quality multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (mpMRI) interpreted by experienced uro-radiologists to rule out clinically significant PC (csPC). Consequently, we developed a new imaging method based on computed tomographic ultrasound (US) supported by artificial neural network analysis (ANNA).

The effect of primary urological cancers on survival in men with secondary prostate cancer.

To test the effect of urological primary cancers (bladder, kidney, testis, upper tract, penile, urethral) on overall mortality (OM) after secondary prostate cancer (PCa). Within the Surveillance, Epidemiology and End Results (SEER) database, patients with urological primary cancers and concomitant secondary PCa (diagnosed 2004-2016) were identified and were matched in 1:4 fashion with primary PCa […]

New Subtype Discovery May Offer Better Treatment Options for Bladder Cancer Patients

Cedars-Sinai Finding May Help Target New Therapies and Predict Which Treatments Are Most Beneficial for Patients San Francisco, CA (UroToday.com) — Cedars-Sinai investigators have identified a subtype of cancer cells that could help predict how bladder cancers respond to certain therapies. Their findings likely will guide physicians toward the most effective treatment for patients with that cancer […]

Prostate cancer screening using a combination of risk-prediction, MRI, and targeted prostate biopsies (STHLM3-MRI): a prospective, population-based, randomised, open-label, non-inferiority trial.

Screening for prostate cancer using prostate-specific antigen (PSA) reduces prostate cancer mortality but can lead to adverse outcomes. We aimed to compare a traditional screening approach with a diagnostic strategy of blood-based risk prediction combined with MRI-targeted biopsies.
