Brief description/objective

Follow-up for patients with testicular cancer should ensure early detection of relapses. Optimal schedules and minimum requirements for cross-sectional imaging are not clearly defined, and guideline recommendations differ. Our aim was to analyse the clinical impact of different imaging modalities for detection of relapse in a large prospective cohort (Swiss Austrian German Testicular Cancer Cohort Study, SAG TCCS).
