About
Darshan Sitharthan is a rising investigator in urologic oncology, with a focused expertise in advanced prostate cancer imaging and staging. His work critically evaluates the diagnostic accuracy of multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (mpMRI) and prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) PET/CT for predicting seminal vesicle invasion (SVI)—a key factor in determining postoperative prognosis for clinically significant prostate cancer. In his landmark 2024 multicenter retrospective study, Sitharthan directly compared the sensitivity and specificity of these two imaging modalities for SVI detection, providing vital data to guide clinical decision-making and risk stratification. This work, already garnering citations, addresses a pressing need for more precise, non-invasive staging tools. By clarifying the predictive value of these advanced techniques, Sitharthan’s research helps refine surgical planning and improve patient outcomes. His contributions are particularly impactful for urologists, radiologists, and oncologists seeking to optimize the use of cutting-edge imaging in the management of high-risk prostate cancer.
