3D modelling system for diagnosis and treatment planning of prostate cancer

An apparently rising incidence of and mortality from prostate cancer coupled with an increasing life expectancy and an expanding population at risk have made this neoplasm a major medical and socioeconomic problem. Adenocarcinoma of the prostate is estimated to be among the most common malignancies...
