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 ...
Multiple novel modalities tasking artificial intelligence based computational pathology applications and integrating other variables, such as risk factors, tumor microenvironment, genomic testing data, laboratory findings, clinical history, and radio...
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...
PURPOSE: Single-port (SP) robotic-assisted simple prostatectomy (RASP) through the transvesical approach is a novel surgical option in the management of large prostatic glands. We present the first multi-institutional study to further assess the peri...
BACKGROUND: Optimal treatment approaches for high-risk localized and locally advanced prostate cancer remain controversial and there are currently no standard treatments. These patients with high-risk localized and locally advanced prostate cancer ar...

INTRODUCTION: Although robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) has become a standard treatment modality in patients with prostate cancer (PCa), RARP is a complicated and difficult surgical procedure due to the risk of serious surgery-related comp...
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...

BACKGROUND: Urinary incontinence after radical prostatectomy affects many men. In addition to surgical and patient factors, longer preoperative membranous urethral length (MUL) has been suggested to be associated with improved postoperative urinary c...
Robotic surgery has become widely used in the field of urology. We experienced concurrent robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) and robot-assisted partial nephrectomy (RAPN) for the complex cases of synchronous primary cancers. Concurrent RARP ...
