[|Human|] My doctor has just advised me that I have Gleason 4 prostate cancer cells from a recent biopsy. My question is this. The Urologist explained a 5 point scale from 1-5 therefore 4 cells being very serious however when I have checked out websites the Gleason scale is 1-10. What should I understand?
[|AI|]  Hi, dairy have gone through your question. I cannunderstand your concern. Gleason score is useful in prostate cancer.  It is based on histological features and architectural criteria.  Score is start from 1+1, so minimum score is 2 and maximum score is 5+ 5. You have score of 4. Any score less than 7 suggest good prognosis.  So you have good prognosis.  Treatment options are radiotherapy and chemotherapy.  Consult your doctor and take treatment accordingly. Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer. Thanks for using Chat Doctor. Wish you a very good health.
