I just noticed today that my YouTube video on Gleason score in advanced prostate cancer has hit 3,000 views.

Gleason score in advanced prostate cancer

Gleason score tells how aggressive a prostate cancer is. It can affect the treatment - surgery, radiation or hormone therapy - that a doctor recommends. Jim (of JimJimJimJim.com) is not a doctor, but a man with a high Gleason score. Jim uses photos of real prostate cancer biopsy samples to give his understanding of Gleason score.

Well Done Jim Congratulations .Great content. An excellent presentation. worthy of a look for anyone who is not really conversant with what the Gleason Score really Means.

Thanks. My doctor didn't explain the a + b = c equation. I wasn't told that the 'a' score was the most common in that biopsy core.

Not what you're looking for?
