- Eric Kim discusses the variation in prostate cancer genomic subtypes related to MRI PI-RADS scores and racial differences. He focused on the correlations between mpMRI findings and the Decipher genomic classifier in a racially diverse cohort of men. The study revealed that MRI and Decipher scores generally correlated well, especially in non-African Americans, but this correlation was weaker among...

- Aditya Bagrodia hosts Daniel Spratt to discuss the complexities of gene expression classifiers in prostate cancer. Dr. Spratt's team conducted a study involving over 50,000 patients to evaluate the interchangeability of three major gene classifiers: Decipher, Oncotype, and Polaris. Contrary to common belief, the study reveals that these tests are not functionally interchangeable, showing only mode...
