This article discusses the relevance of computer modeling to the management of prostate cancer. Several computer modeling techniques are reviewed and the advantages and disadvantages of each are discussed. An example that uses a computer model to compare alternative strategies for clinically localized prostate cancer is examined in detail. The quality of the data used in computer models is critical, and these models play an important role in medical decision making.
本文讨论了计算机建模在前列腺癌管理中的相关性。回顾了几种计算机建模技术，并讨论了每种技术的优缺点。详细研究了一个使用计算机模型比较临床局限性前列腺癌替代策略的实例。计算机模型中使用的数据质量至关重要，并且这些模型在医疗决策中发挥着重要作用。
