Update on 18F-Fluciclovine PET for Prostate Cancer Imaging
PET is a functional imaging method that can exploit various aspects of tumor biology to enable greater detection of prostate cancer than can be provided by morphologic imaging alone. Anti-1-amino-3-18F-flurocyclobutane-1-carboxylic acid (18F-fluciclovine) is a nonnaturally occurring amino acid PET radiotracer that was recently approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for detection of suspected recurrent prostate cancer. The tumor-imaging features of this radiotracer mirror the upregulation of transmembrane amino acid transport that occurs in prostate cancer because of increased amino acid metabolism for energy and...

Multimodality Imaging of Prostate Cancer
Prostate cancer is a very heterogeneous disease, and contemporary management is focused on identification and treatment of the prognostically adverse high-risk tumors while minimizing overtreatment of indolent, low-risk tumors. In recent years, imaging has gained increasing importance in the detection, staging, posttreatment assessment, and detection of recurrence of prostate cancer. Several imaging modalities including conventional and functional methods are used in different clinical scenarios with their very own advantages and limitations. This continuing medical education article provides an overview of available imagi...

Increasing the attractiveness of surgical disciplines for students: Implications of a robot-assisted hands-on training course for medical education
CONCLUSION: Our results demonstrate great demand for implementing robotic training into medical education for an up-to-date curriculum. Although the decision process on career choice is widely multifactorial, stereotypes associated with surgical disciplines should be eliminated. This could have a particularly positive effect on the recruitment of female medical students since women are clearly underrepresented in surgical disciplines although currently and with increasing proportions, more female students are enrolled in medical schools then male.PMID:35937610 | PMC:PMC9349358 | DOI:10.3389/fsurg.2022.953565

Trends in urologic oncology clinical practice and medical education under COVID-19 pandemic: An international survey of senior clinical and academic urologists.
CONCLUSION: Under COVID-19, senior urologic-oncology surgeons worldwide apply risk-stratified approaches to timing of clinical and surgical schedules. Policies regarding trainee education were not significantly affected. We suggest establishment of an international consortium to create a directive for coping with such future challenges to global healthcare.

Knowledge, attitude and practice on screening and early diagnosis of prostate cancer of primary health care providers in the Free State
CONCLUSION: This study established appreciable KAP gaps relating to prostate cancer screening among PHC providers. Identified gaps should be addressed through the preferred teaching and learning strategies suggested by the participants.Contribution: This study establishes the need to address KAP gaps regarding prostate cancer screening among PHC providers; therefore necessitating the capacity-building roles of district family physicians.PMID:36861921 | PMC:PMC9982489 | DOI:10.4102/phcfm.v15i1.3688

Prostate cancer early detection among primary care physicians in Mexico: A cross-sectional study
CONCLUSIONS: A low rate of PCP performs PCa-ED and using concepts outside evidence-based recommendations. A national program on PCa-ED and continuing medical education for PCP are a promising strategy to improve PCa-ED.PMID:33784274 | DOI:10.24875/CIRU.20000232
