OBJECTIVE: After radical prostatectomy (RP), one-third of patients will experience biochemical recurrence (BCR), which is associated with subsequent metastasis and cancer-specific mortality. We employed machine learning (ML) algorithms to predict BCR...
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...
Robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) is challenging in men with prior history of transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP). Few studies analyze this peculiar group of patients, and hence we sought to investigate the outcome of RARP in pos...
This work aimed to explore the accuracy of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) images based on the convolutional neural network (CNN) algorithm in the diagnosis of prostate cancer patients and tumor risk grading. A total of 89 patients with prostate can...

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: The 3D U-Net model has been proved to perform well in the automatic organ segmentation. The aim of this study is to evaluate the feasibility of the 3D U-Net algorithm for the automated detection and segmentation of lymph nodes (LNs) on pe...
