I am trying to fill out the Mayo Clinic prostate cancer calculator and they are asking for: Prostate Volume (cc). I had a CT scan after my biopsy and it says: Prostate measures 5x4.7 cm. Can I just multiply those two figures to get 23.5? But yet those are centimeters and the calculator wants cubic centimeter. cc vs cm. ARE THEY THE SAME THING? Thanks, Nick It's at: http://riskcalc.org/Prostate/

I doubt it
I don't think you can calculate the volume from those two measurements. But the biopsy report should have the 3-D info. Just call the urologist if you don't have that report.

They didn't do a 3D biopsy. I
They didn't do a 3D biopsy. I got the Sam's Club Special TRUS biopsy.

TRUS = prostate volume?
I got a conventional TRUS biopsy as well. The report did show the volume. Just call the urologist.
