Description:

The primary aim of the present study is to evaluate how automatically calculated (by an AI-based method) tumour burden, measured as tumour volume (TV) and as tumour uptake (TU: TV x SUVmean) in the prostate/prostate bed, pelvic lymph nodes, distant lymph nodes, bone and as the total tumour burden predicts overall survival (OS) in patients with prostate cancer (newly diagnosed and patients with biochemical recurrence).
