An Integrated Score and Nomogram Combining Clinical and Immunohistochemistry Factors to Predict High ISUP Grade Clear Cell Renal Cell Carcinoma [PDF]
Objective: The International Society of Urological Pathology (ISUP) has proposed a grading system to classify renal cell carcinoma (RCC). However, classification using biopsy specimens remains problematic and, consequently, the accuracy of a biopsy-based

Tumour Volume Independently Predicts Metastasis in ISUP 2 Prostate Cancer. [PDF]
Background and Objectives: The outcomes for patients with localised prostate cancer are variable, even within defined tumour grades or clinical risk groups. Identifying features associated with disease aggression is imperative in contemporary PCa research.

The Association of Quantitative PSMA PET Parameters With Pathologic ISUP Grade: An International Multicenter Analysis [PDF]
Abstract Purpose To assess if PSMA PET quantitative parameters are associated with pathologic ISUP grade group (GG) and upgrading/downgrading. Methods PCa patients undergoing radical prostatectomy with or without pelvic lymph node dissection staged with preoperative PSMA PET

Florastamin Uptake on PSMA PET/CT as an Imaging Biomarker of Tumor Aggressiveness in Prostate Cancer [PDF]
Background: This study aimed to evaluate the association between the uptake on F-18 florastamin PET/CT, which targets the prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA), and the histopathological grade of the primary tumor in newly diagnosed prostate cancer ...

4Kscore as a Pre-MRI Reflex Test for Men with PSA 1.80–2.99 ng/ml in the Göteborg-2 Prostate Cancer Screening Trial [PDF]
Background: Lowering the prostate-specific antigen (PSA) cut-off from 3.0 to 1.8 ng/ml in prostate cancer (PCa) screening would improve diagnostic yield but substantially increase the number of men undergoing diagnostic work-up.

Systematic versus perilesional sampling in transperineal MRI-fusion biopsy: is perilesional sampling ready for prime time? A high-volume center analysis [PDF]
Background Multiparametric MRI has improved prostate cancer (PCa) diagnostics. The current standard combines MRI-targeted fusion biopsy (TB) with 12-core systematic biopsy (SB); current guidelines allow replacing SB with perilesional sampling (PB ...

Focal Therapy for Prostate Cancer: A Treatment Option Reserved for the Ideal Candidate? [PDF]
Objectives: To evaluate outcomes of FT (HIFU or cryotherapy) in prostate cancer (PCa) patients who do not meet the ideal focal therapy candidate profile, assessing whether expanding selection criteria beyond traditional parameters is safe. Materials and

Minimum ADC outperforms PSA and PSA density for predicting ISUP grade group in prostate cancer: a retrospective study of 192 patients undergoing radical prostatectomy [PDF]
BackgroundApparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) derived from diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) has been proposed as a quantitative biomarker of prostate cancer aggressiveness, and an inverse relationship between ADC and Gleason score has been reported ...
