Multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (mpMRI) has improved the triage of men with suspected prostate cancer, through precision prebiopsy identification of clinically significant disease. While multiple important characteristics, including tumour grade and size have been shown to affect conspicuity on mpMRI, tumour location and association with mpMRI visibility is an underexplored facet of this field.

The purpose of this study was to determine whether single nucleotide polymorphisms disrupting microRNA targets (mirSNPs) can serve as predictive biomarkers for toxicity after radiotherapy for prostate cancer and whether these may be differentially predictive depending on radiation fractionation.

To evaluate the results of the radiation therapy (RT) quality assurance (QA) program of the phase III randomized "XXXX-Anonymized for Review" trial in biochemically recurrent prostate cancer (PC) patients after prostatectomy.

Compared to Caucasians (CAs), African Americans (AAs) have a higher rate of incidence and mortality in prostate cancer and are prone to be diagnosed at later stages. To understand this racial disparity, molecular features of different types, including gene expression, DNA methylation and other genomic alterations, have been compared between tumor samples from the two […]

Penile cancers are uncommon and should be treated in expert center. Radiotherapy indications are mainly limited to exclusive brachytherapy for early stage penile glans cancer. Brachytherapy yields to excellent outcome for disease control and organ and function preservation.

Urinary microbiota has been found to play a key role in numerous urological diseases. The aim of this systematic review is to depict the role of urinary microbiota in the pathogenesis, diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment of urological tumors, including bladder cancer (BCa), prostate cancer (PCa) and renal cell carcinoma (RCC).

Nutrition is a modifiable risk factor for patients undergoing multimodal oncologic interventions and plays a major supportive role in the setting of bladder cancer. For patients undergoing radical cystectomy (RC), malnutrition is associated with increased postoperative complications and mortality.
