Discrimination of T-Stage Using Tumor Weight and Size: A Potential Approach to Guide Perioperative Decision-Making in Patients with Bladder Cancer
In patients diagnosed with BCa, tumor size, and weight showed similar predictive power concerning T1 NMIBC and MIBC. Tumor density failed to predict the local tumor stage sufficiently. These results may lay the foundation for improving objective measurement of the local tumor burden in patients with BCa and may help guide further immediate treatment decisions.
