ABSTRACT
Prostate cancer is one of the most common malignant tumors in the world.Without typical early manifestations in the early stage, it is often too late when found. Therefore, early diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis are critical to improving the survival rate of patients with prostate cancer. Over the past few years, artificial intelligence(AI) has developed rapidly in the field of prostate cancer. In terms of diagnosis, AI is used as a tool to screen the images to reduce the error caused by the professionalism and subjectivity of the technician and to improve the repeatability of the results; In the prediction of prognosis, the algorithm calculates and evaluates disease-related parameters such as recurrence rate, lymph node metastasis rate and mortality rate, so as to assistant clinicians in decision-making and treatment improvements. This reviews aims to introduce the application of artificial intelligence in the diagnosis, treatment and prognosis of prostate cancer in recent years, as well as the prospect and challenges faced by artificial intelligence in the medical field.
