BACKGROUND: The Prostate Imaging Reporting and Data System (PI-RADS) provides guidelines for risk stratification of lesions detected on multiparametric MRI (mpMRI) of the prostate but suffers from high intra/interreader variability.
BACKGROUND: Prostate adenocarcinoma (PRAD) is a common malignant tumor in elderly men. Our research uses The Cancer Gene Atlas (TCGA) database to find potential related genes for predicting the prognosis of patients with PRAD.
Saturation transfer MRI can be useful in the characterization of different tumour types. It is sensitive to tumour metabolism, microstructure, and microenvironment. This study aimed to use saturation transfer to differentiate between intratumoural re...
The peritoneal interposition flap (PIF) has been shown to prevent postoperative symptomatic lymphocele (SL) formation after robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) and pelvic lymph node dissection (PLND). The PIF inhibits the mobilized bladder f...

Prostate cancer (PrCa) is the second most common cancer among men in the United States. The gold standard for detecting PrCa is the examination of prostate needle core biopsies. Diagnosis can be challenging, especially for small, well-differentiated ...
BACKGROUND: Structure delineation is a necessary, yet time-consuming manual procedure in radiotherapy. Recently, convolutional neural networks have been proposed to speed-up and automatise this procedure, obtaining promising results. With the advent ...
IMPORTANCE: Histopathological diagnoses of tumors from tissue biopsy after hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) dye staining is the criterion standard for oncological care, but H&E staining requires trained operators, dyes and reagents, and precious tissue sa...
