Abstract

Localised prostate cancer (PCa) remains a disease setting where absolute prognostication is difficult, as features that indicate upfront clinical aggression may not be apparent. An individual's prognosis is currently made based on a multimodal assessment of physical and biochemical disease characteristics and this information is used to predict the likelihood of disease progression [1]. Histopathological assessment of biopsied tissue to identify carcinoma-associated Gleason patterns and TNM tumour classification are standard measures of disease severity [2,3].
