Rajal B. Shah, Dr. Charles T. Ashworth Professor of Pathology at UT Southwestern Medical Center and Associate Editor of the Journal of Clinical Pathology, shared a post on LinkedIn about a paper he co-authored with colleagues published in Histopathology:
“Excited and proud to present unified Genitourinary Pathology Society (GUPS) and International Society of Urological Pathology (ISUP) expert recommendations on Intraductal Carcinoma of the Prostate (IDCP), an aggressive form of prostate cancer. By employing a structured, transparent Delphi process—with iterative discussion, predefined consensus thresholds, and an open community
Input, experts from both societies amicably reconciled previously divergent guidance into a single, implementable framework. This is an important step towards the standardization of practices, ensuring appropriate patient care, and facilitating future research in this area.
As co-chairs of this consultation (RBS and GK), we hope that this joint effort will serve as a blueprint for forthcoming joint statements on topics of broad clinical relevance, helping to minimise avoidable variation in diagnostic practice across societies.
We are grateful to core members, expert panel members, and Boston meeting participants for their engagement in this consultation and to Lumea, DDx foundation, for sponsoring the meeting and British Association of Urological Pathology (BAUP) for logistics support.”
