Hydrogel spacer placement for prostate radiotherapy: a urology residency training experience. @zklaassen_md @GACancerCenter joins @l_ballas @CedarsSinai sharing insights from ~250 Barrigel® cases since 2022, highlighting improved resident training with real-time, pausable injection vs SpaceOAR. Barrigel® also shows reduced ≥grade 2 acute GI toxicity. 5/8 trainees now use spacers in practice. #WatchNow on UrtoToday > bit.ly/4euqrKB @Barrigel_spacer

Cardiovascular prevention in #prostatecancer needs tools that actually fit oncology workflows.
We built externally validated PC-specific risk scores for ASCVD, heart failure, and CVD using variables already available in cancer clinics. Introducing the GUHA-STABELLINI score

Last week, @ZhuPeipei presented her research on neutrophils during a Research in Progress presentation hosted by the @GACancerCenter. Neutrophils comprise more than 60% of white blood cells that repair the body from infection and help heal tissue.
