Additionally, cribriform PCa, LVI, and a tumour size seem to portend a higher risk of metastasis, with size ...

What's New? Prostate cancer is a significant health and economic concern in Germany. In particular, screening methods require greater optimisation to prevent overdiagnosis and unnecessary procedures and to ensure clinical benefit. Here, prostate cancer screening strategies were evaluated to determine which are most effective in terms of cost and health
