OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study was to estimate the prospective utility of a previously retrospectively validated convolutional neural network (CNN) for prostate cancer (PC) detection on prostate magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).
OBJECTIVE: The feasibility of tracer production of technetium (Tc)-prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA)-I&S sterile cold kit, imaging with single photon emission tomography/computed tomography (SPECT/CT), and Tc-PSMA-radioguided robot-assisted l...
OBJECTIVES: To determine the value of a deep learning masked (DLM) auto-fixed volume of interest (VOI) segmentation method as an alternative to manual segmentation for radiomics-based diagnosis of clinically significant (CS) prostate cancer (PCa) on ...

OBJECTIVES: Nerve sparing may increase positive surgical margin rate during radical prostatectomy. Our objective was to analyze the positive surgical margin rate and location as well as its impact on biochemical recurrence according to nerve sparing ...
PURPOSE: To automate the segmentation of treatment applicators on computed tomography (CT) images for high-dose-rate (HDR) brachytherapy prostate patients implanted with titanium needles with the goals of improving plan quality and reducing the patie...
Bone pelvic dimensions and body habitus may have effects on robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP). In this study, we examined the effects of body mass index, bone pelvis measurements and prostate measurements on console time (CT), decrease in p...
In 2022, endoscopic enucleation of the prostate (EEP) is the treatment of choice for benign prostatic obstruction (BPO) for glands >80 ml and is a valid alternative for patients with bleeding disorders. Unlike robot-assisted radical prostatectomy, EE...
Precise knowledge of each patient's index cancer and surrounding anatomy is required for nerve-sparing robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (NS-RARP). Complementary to this, 3D printing has proven its utility in improving the visualisation of complex...
Three-dimensional (3D) transrectal ultrasound (TRUS) is utilized in prostate cancer diagnosis and treatment, necessitating time-consuming manual prostate segmentation. We have previously developed an automatic 3D prostate segmentation algorithm invol...
