Abstract

A method of analyzing a biopsy sample containing tissue extracted from a prostate gland of a subject comprises measuring zinc level and an epithelial glandular tissue concentration in the sample, determining the likelihood that the sample is cancerous based on at least the zinc level and the epithelial glandular tissue concentration in the sample, and generating an output indicative of the likelihood.
