Adjuvant vs. salvage radiation therapy in men with high-risk features after radical prostatectomy: Survey of North American genitourinary expert radiation oncologists [PDF]
INTRODUCTION: The management of patients with high-risk features after radical prostatectomy (RP) is controversial. Level 1 evidence demonstrates that adjuvant radiation therapy (RT) improves survival compared to no treatment; however, it may ...

Accurate Prostate Cancer Detection and Segmentation on Biparametric MRI using Non-local Mask R-CNN with Histopathological Ground Truth [PDF]
Purpose: We aimed to develop deep machine learning (DL) models to improve the detection and segmentation of intraprostatic lesions (IL) on bp-MRI by using whole amount prostatectomy specimen-based delineations. We also aimed to investigate whether transfer learning and self-training would improve results with small amount labelled data.

Vesicourethral anastomosis facilitated by a new disposable instrument
The author presents a prototype of a disposable device that enables, in one single movement, the passing of all suture stitches in the urethral stump that will be anastomosed to the bladder or to a neobladder, with the advantage of a regular distribution

Amniotic tissues and methylene blue (MB) provide the ability for neuroregeneration, and MB enables intraoperative neurostaining. We first combined the techniques to explore a neuroprotective effect on early functional outcomes in a retrospective proof-of-
