3D Imaging Method Determines Prostate Cancer Aggressiveness

Prostate cancer is the most common cancer for men and, for men in the USA, and it is the second leading cause of death. Prostate cancer treatment planning is largely dependent upon examination of core-needle biopsies. The microscopic architecture of the prostate glands forms the basis for prognostic grading by pathologists. More...
