Active surveillance

open access: yesCurrent Opinion in Urology, 2013
To give insight into recent literature (during the past 12-18 months) reporting on oncologic outcomes of men on active surveillance.From recent published trials comparing radical prostatectomy vs. watchful waiting, we learn that radical treatment only benefits a small proportion of men and that a substantial part of men is overtreated.

Psychological aspects of active surveillance

open access: yesCurrent Opinion in Urology, 2012
Active surveillance is emerging as a serious alternative to radical therapy for low-risk prostate cancer. In a situation in which the difference in effects on disease morbidity and mortality of different treatment options for these malignancies is likely to be small, the quality of life and psychological aspects may be decisive in treatment choice.The ...

Active outdoor surveillance

Proceedings 10th International Conference on Image Analysis and Processing, 2003
We describe a real time visual surveillance system for detecting and tracking people in an outdoor environment with an active camera which has zoom, tilt and pan control. It operates on monocular grayscale video imagery, or on video imagery from an infrared camera.

Is Active Surveillance Too Active?

Current Urology Reports, 2023
Many prostate cancer active surveillance protocols mandate serial monitoring at defined intervals, including but certainly not limited to serum PSA (often every 6 months), clinic visits, prostate multiparametric MRI, and repeat prostate biopsies.

Psychological aspects of active surveillance

World Journal of Urology, 2021
The objective of this paper was to discuss the psychological impact of active surveillance (AS) for prostate cancer (PCa) and the resulting implications of psychological wellbeing for treatment decision making and acceptance of AS protocols.Qualitative and quantitative research in the area of anxiety, depression, and distress is discussed drawing from ...

Active surveillance

Current Opinion in Urology, 2012
Active surveillance has evolved to become a standard of care for favorable-risk prostate cancer. This article is a summary of the rationale, method, and results of active surveillance beginning in 1995 with the first prospective trial of this approach.This was a prospective, single arm cohort study.

Active Surveillance: The European Experience

2012
PC is the most frequently diagnosed malignancy in men across Europe. After PSA became available as a potential screening tool for the early detection of PC, the incidence of the disease has been increasing, as well as the relative amount of low-risk and potentially overdiagnosed disease.

Optimizing Active Surveillance

European Urology, 2016
Active surveillance is evolving as a management strategy for favorable-risk prostate cancer. Further study is needed to determine the safety of surveillance for specific subgroups of patients, and to clarify the role of genomic markers and image-guided biopsy.

Activity Normalization for Activity Detection in Surveillance Videos

2020 IEEE International Conference on Image Processing (ICIP), 2020
A framework for activity detection in surveillance videos generally involves activity proposal generation and activity classification. An activity proposal is a spatial and temporal candidate region for an arbitrary activity, and an activity classifier identifies the activity class for activity proposals.
