BCG-unresponsive NMIBC trials feel confusing—and inconsistent EFS reporting is a big reason why We analyze the CIS+ cohorts of 4-FDA registration trials to provide interpretable EFS estimates 🧵👇 @Annals_Oncology @tompowles1 @JoshMeeks @wandering_gu https://t.co/UVlffMc8qY

One slide says it all! Terrific distillation by @MichvdHeijden of what to do in emerging pt populations in #bladdercancer, namely pts who received perioperative IO. Mirrors discussions we have been having in #kidneycancer. #ESMO25

In a trial of men with suspected prostate cancer, biparametric MRI, which excludes the gadolinium contrast sequence, was noninferior to multiparametric MRI for detecting clinically significant cases. 🧵 https://t.co/t4f6t0k1uF

The Prostate Imaging for Recurrence Reporting (PI-RR) system standardizes MRI performance and interpretation after prostatectomy or radiation therapy and is an essential reference for radiologists in standardizing reporting of recurrent prostate cancer. https://t.co/8rLeQSVn2x

Excellent comprehensive review + metaanalysis on the diagnostic role of #PSMA Pet in #ProstateCancer ✅ High diagnostic value of PSMA PET, especially when combined with #MRI ✅ NPV indicates limitations to guide LND - not enough to omit biopsy @EUplatinum @oncodaily @elio_mazzone

🚨New in @EUPlatinum! 📌 PSMA PET for Prostate Cancer Diagnosis & Staging by @elio_mazzone et al 🧠 This comprehensive meta-analysis confirms the high diagnostic value of PSMA PET—especially when combined with MRI—but reminds us it’s not enough to skip biopsy or lymph node

A 🧵 on our recent study on surveillance for IR-NMIBC @EurUrolOncol https://t.co/trmFp9Yd0y There is limited evidence on follow-up for IR-NMIBC. We used data from >2000 primary Ta–T1 NMIBC to stratify IR-NMIBC by recurrence risk and propose a risk-adapted follow-up approach.
