Abstract
|
:
|
Incorporates a series of works in prostate cancer screening, ranging from the status quo of prostate cancer screening across the globe to consensus on optimal utilization of the traditional PSA and DRE tests, to research in various biomarkers, biomeasures, and risk algorithms for prostate cancer. This book covers family-based linkage analysis.
