A definitive diagnosis of prostate cancer requires a biopsy to obtain tissue for pathologic analysis, but this is an invasive procedure and is associated with complications. To develop an artificial intelligence (AI)-based model (named AI-biopsy) for the early diagnosis of prostate cancer using magnetic resonance (MR) images labeled with histopathology information.
To compare perioperative and oncologic survival outcomes between laparoscopic radical cystectomy and open radical cystectomy. A total of 607 patients underwent open radical cystectomy (n = 412) or laparoscopic radical cystectomy (n = 195) at a single academic institution from January 2006 to April 2017.
A marker of urothelial damage could be helpful for early detection and monitoring of local toxicity due to intravesical therapy for non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC). The aim of the study was to investigate the correlation between fibronectin (FN) gene expression in bladder washings and local toxicity secondary to adjuvant intravesical therapy.
To assess the association of tumor architecture with cancer recurrence, metastasis, and cancer-specific survival (CSS) in patients treated with radical nephroureterectomy (RNU) for upper urinary tract urothelial carcinoma (UTUC) in Taiwan.
Many muscle invasive bladder cancers are hypoxic which limits efficacy of radiotherapy. Hypoxia modification using carbogen and nicotinamide has been tested in a phase III trial, XXXX. We present mature follow up with biomarker prediction of outcome.
Background: Of patients with upper urinary tract urothelial carcinoma (UTUC), 22-47% developed bladder recurrence after radical nephroureterectomy. Furthermore, the effect of surgery for UTUC-bladder cancer (BC) has not been well validated.
To examine the ability of computed tomography radiomic features in multivariate analysis and construct radiomic model for identification of the the WHO/ISUP pathological grade of clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC).
To prospectively compare 18F-prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA)-1007 positron emission tomography (PET)/CT, whole-body magnetic resonance imaging (WBMRI) including diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) and standard computed tomography (CT), in primary nodal staging of prostate cancer (PCa).
To shed light on the survival outcomes of prostate cancer (PCa) patients diagnosed after a prior cancer and identify prognostic factors for overall survival (OS) and cancer-specific survival (CSS) in PCa patients.
Lymphoceles are a common postoperative complication after radical prostatectomy with pelvic lymphadenectomy. Therapeutic options include cannulation and drainage (CD), drainage and instillation (DI), or laparoscopic fenestration (LF).
