Actual Aspects of Prostate Cancer Treatment—An Interdisciplinary Approach (Volume II)

Dear Colleagues,

This collection is the second edition of the previous one "Actual Aspects of Prostate Cancer Treatment—an Interdisciplinary Approach"

(https://www.mdpi.com/journal/cancers/special_issues/Actual_Aspects_Prostate_Cancer_Treatment_Interdisciplinary_Approach).

Prostate cancer is one of the leading cancer diagnoses worldwide. By improving the different interdisciplinary therapeutic approaches, cure rates could be improved, especially for patients with localized disease.

For primary curative therapy, surgical and radiotherapeutic methods are used. Both methods have led to further advances in treatment over the past few decades, e.g., the establishment of robot-assisted surgery or the implementation of intensity-modulated techniques in radiotherapy.

Further actual scientific aspects concern the role of modern methods of imaging (e.g., PSMA-PET/CT), salvage therapy for recurrence after primary treatment, hypofractionation in radiotherapy, and the prediction of tumor responses. In this Special Issue of Cancers entitled “Actual Aspects of Prostate Cancer Treatment—An Interdisciplinary Approach”, we want to discuss at least some of these actual topics from an interdisciplinary point of view. Our scope includes current therapy concepts as well as innovative approaches.
