Biochemical Recurrence, Gleason Score, PET/CT, Prostate Cancer, Radiomics
Conditions
Brief summary
This single-center retrospective study aims to develop an interpretable radiomics model based on dual-tracer PET/CT to preoperatively predict the postoperative pathological Gleason grade group in treatment-naïve prostate cancer patients. A machine learning-based three-class prediction model will be constructed and interpreted using SHAP. Its performance will be compared with systematic biopsy results, assessing grading accuracy and prognostic value for biochemical recurrence-free survival.
Interventions
Retrospective analysis of pre-prostatectomy dual-tracer PET/CT (⁶⁸Ga-PSMA and ⁶⁸Ga-RM26) imaging data.
