OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study was to investigate the longitudinal 5-year long-term outcomes for urinary continence and quality of life (QOL) after robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP), particularly nerve-sparing.
Prostate cancer treatment planning is largely dependent upon examination of core-needle biopsies. The microscopic architecture of the prostate glands forms the basis for prognostic grading by pathologists. Interpretation of these convoluted three-dim...

A transurethral prostate biopsy device is proposed in this paper, which can shoot a biopsy needle at different angles to take samples from multiple locations within the prostate. Firstly, the traditional prostate biopsy methods, including transrectal...
OBJECTIVES: To assess Prostate Imaging Reporting and Data System (PI-RADS)-trained deep learning (DL) algorithm performance and to investigate the effect of data size and prior knowledge on the detection of clinically significant prostate cancer (csP...
BACKGROUND: Due to the low cancer-detection rate in patients with PIRADS category 3 lesions, we created machine learning (ML) models to facilitate decision-making about whether to perform prostate biopsies or monitor clinical information without biop...

BACKGROUND: Deep learning-based reconstruction (DLR) can potentially improve image quality by reduction of noise, thereby enabling fast acquisition of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). However, a systematic evaluation of image quality and diagnostic ...
Automated methods for detecting prostate cancer and distinguishing indolent from aggressive disease on Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) could assist in early diagnosis and treatment planning. Existing automated methods of prostate cancer detection mo...
BACKGROUND: Focal therapy (FT) for prostate cancer is less invasive than radical treatment but carries a risk of recurrence. Salvage robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (S-RARP) is a possible option after FT failure.
PURPOSE: To compare image quality in prostate MRI among standard T2-weighted imaging (T2-std), accelerated T2-weighted imaging (T2WI) with high resolution (T2-HR) and more accelerated T2WI with lower resolution (T2-LR) using both conventional reconst...
