DOI: 10.1038/s41379-020-0640-y
Abstract: The Gleason score is the most important prognostic marker for prostate cancer patients, but it suffers from significant observer variability. Artificial intelligence (AI) systems based on deep learning can achieve pathologist-level performance at Gleason grading.… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/cancers14061589
Abstract: Simple Summary Magnetic-resonance-imaging-based predictive models (MRI-PMs) improve the MRI prediction of clinically significant prostate cancer (csPCa) in prostate biopsies. Risk calculators (RC) provide easy individual assessment of csPCa likelihood. MRI-PMs have been analysed in overall… read more here.

DOI: 10.46883/25920952
Abstract: Prostate-specific antigen (PSA) values above 100 ng/mL often suggest metastatic prostate cancer. We present the case of a patient with a PSA of 110 ng/mL, 4 negative prostate biopsies, and 4 negative prostate MRIs. After… read more here.
