The April issue of the German Urology journal Urologische Nachrichten, contained two articles relating to the use of the software EXINI boneBSIand BSI in quantification of tumour burden in patients suffering from skeletal metastatic prostate cancer (mCRPC).

The articles: 'Quantifizierung der ossären Metastasierung bei mCRPC' (Quantification of Bone Metastases among mCRPC), written by Dr. Inga Peters and Prof. Georg Berding at the Medizinische Hochschule in Hannover, and 'Bone Scan Index bei mCRPC-Patienten' (Bone Scan Index among mCRPC-patients), written by Dr. Till Eichenauer and Dr. Lars Budaeus at the Martini Clinic, Hamburg University Hospital, both demonstrate the use for EXINI's automated calculation of BSI-value in evaluating patients suffering from castration-resistant skeletal metastatic prostate cancer.

'In the future, automated calculation of BSI may provide us with more accurate definitions of progression, leading up better treatment decisions.'(Dr. Peters, Prof. Berding)

'Analysis shows that an increased BSI-value corresponds to an increased patient mortality. A corresponding increase of PSA-value, on the other hand, shows no significance.'(Dr. Erichenauer, Dr. Budaeus)

'Having EXINI boneBSIand BSI described in articles from two renowned university hospitals in an editorial journal, reaching the majority of urologists in Germany, is excellent,'says Magnus Aurell, CEO at EXINI Diagnostics AB.

More on Urologische Nachrichten:
Urologische Nachrichten is an up-to-date, independent national monthly journal for urologists demonstrating editorial ambitions. It targets all German-speaking urologists in both public and private sector.

More on Bone Scan Index (BSI):
BSI is an imaging biomarker providing fast, accurate and quantifiable information to be used for diagnosis and stratification and the monitoring of treatment response. It also provides increased accuracy in prognoses involving patients suffering from skeletal metastases originating from prostate cancer.

Moreover, BSI has demonstrated its importance in the process of developing new drugs, thus proving itself just as important for clinical use as for the pharmaceutical industry. EXINI boneBSIis the only software capable of calculating the BSI-value.
