Erdafitinib is just around the corner for #metastatic #urothelialcancer! However, FGFR3 alterations are rare (10-15%) in MUC! In our recently published study in Nature Communications we thus asked whether we could use #AI to prescreen histopathology slides for presence of FGFR3

A 🧵 on our recent study on surveillance for IR-NMIBC European Urology Oncology authors.elsevier.com/c/1l7pU_wtP00L… There is limited evidence on follow-up for IR-NMIBC. We used data from >2000 primary Ta–T1 NMIBC to stratify IR-NMIBC by recurrence risk and propose a risk-adapted follow-up approach.
