To present our initial observations on the clinical feasibility of the technique of short-course intensity-modulated radiotherapy (SCIM-RT) in the treatment of localized prostate cancer coupled with daily transabdominal ultrasound localization of the prostate. The proposed regimen consists of a ...
Prostate cancer in dogs can be classified into two histopathological groups: prostate adenocarcinoma (PAC) and transitional cell carcinoma (TCC) [1]. Both are typically characterized by metastasis, local invasiveness, androgen-independence and chemoresistance [2,3], which is why they have been propose...

The University of Otago and K9 Medical Detection NZ are working together to investigate using dogs as a diagnostic tool to sniff out prostate cancer.
Clinical applicability of newly discovered reagents for molecular imaging is hampered by the lack of translational models. As the dog prostate cancer (DPC-1) model recapitulates in dogs the natural history of prostate cancer in man, we tested the feasibi
Radiation is often the main treatment for prostate cancer that has not spread. It may also be given as follow-up to surgery. Radiation may also be used, in advanced cases, to relieve pain from the spread of cancer to bones.Incontinenceand impotence may also happen after radiation. Radiation...
Claire Guest from Medical Detection Dogs spoke to the Guardian, saying that the results from the new study were 'spectacular'. She added: 'They offer us further proof that dogs have the ability to detect human cancer. It is particularly exciting that we have such a high success rate in the...
