    GlossaryGleason Score

    grading system for prostate cancer cell patterns' aggressiveness

    The Gleason Score is a grading system used to evaluate the aggressiveness of prostate cancer by examining the patterns of cancer cells in a biopsy sample. It ranges from 2 to 10, with higher scores indicating more aggressive and poorly differentiated tumors, which are more likely to spread. This score helps guide treatment decisions and predict patient outcomes.
