- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method <p>1. Construction of a Dutch multicenter prospective biorepository for validation<br /><br>of biomarker and imaging products.</p><br>
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method <p>1. Provision of a Medical Technology Assessment (MTA) of newly developed<br /><br>biomarkers, contrast enhanced ultrasound and multimodality MRI in early and<br /><br>advanced PCa for diagnosis and therapeutic decision making as compared to<br /><br>current standard diagnostic techniques.<br /><br>2. Initiation of a Clinical Decision Support System (CDSS) that optimizes<br /><br>clinical decision making by integrating the complex information from biomarkers<br /><br>and (molecular) imaging, next to individual clinical data in the clinical phase<br /><br>of the disease.</p><br>
