| Abstract: | The ability to identify prostate cancer patients at ‘high risk’ for bone metastasis development could allow early selection of those most likely to benefit from interventions to prevent or delay bone metastasis. This review is aimed to identify potential predictors of risk for bone metastasis in newly diagnosed patients and in those who have already received treatment. |
