PURPOSE: Synthetic computed tomography (sCT)-algorithms, which generate computed tomography images from magnetic resonance imaging data, are becoming part of the clinical radiotherapy workflow. The aim of this retrospective study was to evaluate and ...
BACKGROUND: Bi-parametric magnetic resonance imaging (bpMRI) has demonstrated promising results in prostate cancer (PCa) detection. Vision transformers have achieved competitive performance compared to convolutional neural network (CNN) in deep learn...
BACKGROUND: For biochemical recurrence following radical prostatectomy for prostate cancer, treatments such as radiation therapy and androgen deprivation therapy are administered. To diagnose postoperative recurrence as early as possible and to inter...
This bicenter retrospective analysis included 162 patients who had undergone prostate biopsy following prebiopsy MRI, excluding those with PCa identified only in the peripheral zone (PZ). DLR T2WI achieved a 69% reduction in scan time relative to TSE...
Prostate-specific antigen (PSA) is the most commonly used marker of prostate cancer. However, nearly 25% of men with elevated PSA levels do not have cancer and nearly 20% of patients with prostate cancer have normal serum PSA levels. Therefore, in th...

INTRODUCTION: Prostate cancer remains a significant health concern, with radical prostatectomy being a common treatment approach. However, predicting postoperative functional outcomes, particularly urinary continence and erectile function, poses chal...
Prostate cancer (PCa) is a clinically heterogeneous disease. Predicting clinically significant PCa with low-intermediate prostate-specific antigen (PSA), which often includes aggressive cancers, is imperative. This study evaluated the predictive accu...
The specificity and sensitivity of a simple non-invasive multi-cancer screening method in detecting breast, lung, prostate, and colorectal cancer in breath samples were evaluated in a double-blind study. Breath samples of 1386 participants (59.7% mal...
BACKGROUND: Cognitive fusion MRI-guided targeted biopsy (cTB) has been widely used in the diagnosis of prostate cancer (PCa). However, cTB relies heavily on the operator's experience and confidence in MRI readings. Our objective was to compare the ca...
