Image: GS3 prostate cancer: The tissue still has recognizable glands, but the cells are darker. At high magnification, some of these cells have left the glands and are beginning to invade the surrounding tissue or having an infiltrative pattern. This corresponds to a moderately differentiated carcinoma (Photo courtesy of Wikimedia Commons).

PSA Gene Variants Distinguish Patients with Highly Aggressive Prostate Cancer
