Additional information
This paper is an extension of the work performed on bladder cancer. The same methodology is applied to predict prostate cancer. The developed neuro-fuzzy model can identify which patients might benefit from focal ablative techniques. The system can identify if the patient can benefit form focal therapy. The standard criteria shows that 50% of the patients are over treated resulting in high cost to the NHS.
