I asked for one, the rule is if you have ADT or radiation they won't do a decipher test.

Thanks for the link to pubmed, Very informative, The pathology report was state of the art and reviewed by a tumor board of pathologist. They did say that my results were likely do to treatment effect. However, they concluded that the cancer never metastasized beyond the prostate . There was a lot of disagreement among my scans, I guess the Doctor chose the ones that would justify radiation or surgery. If they were correct in the tumor being < 5%, perhaps a TURP could have been performed, just to remove the tumor. Keep in mind Gleason is only 80% accurate at best and there are a lot of < 50% accuracy.
