Health

Surgical removal of the prostate to treat prostate cancer is currently determined on the basis of tissue sample analysis (Gleason grading). As this method is invasive and often unreliable, scientists around the world are looking for alternatives. A research team at MedUni Vienna has now developed a new method that can be used to identify those patients for whom surgical treatment is the best option. As a result, avoiding unnecessary surgery in patients with a lower risk of tumour spread is now possible. The study was recently published in the journal "Theranostics".
