About

Xavier Ruiz Plazas is an Associate Professor at Rovira i Virgili University in Spain. His research primarily focuses on the early detection and diagnosis of significant prostate cancer, with recent publications examining various biopsy techniques, the impact of 5-alpha reductase inhibitors, and the validation of predictive models in prostate cancer detection. His work contributes significantly to improving diagnostic pathways and patient outcomes in urology.
