| Abstract |
A bone scan is a common method for monitoring bone metastases in patients with advanced prostatecancer. The Bone Scan Index (BSI) measures the tumor burden on the skeleton, expressed as apercentage of the total skeletal mass. Previous studies have shown that BSI is associated withsurvival of prostate cancer patients. The objective in this study was to investigate to what extentregional BSI measurements, as obtained by an automated method, can improve the survival analysisfor advanced prostate cancer. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 4. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 22 July 2014.
All research outputs
#7,099,722
of 23,376,718 outputs
Outputs from BMC Medical Imaging
#91
of 615 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#66,286
of 227,222 outputs
Outputs of similar age from BMC Medical Imaging
#3
of 10 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 23,376,718 research outputs across all sources so far. This one has received more attention than most of these and is in the 69th percentile.
So far Altmetric has tracked 615 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 2.1. This one has done well, scoring higher than 85% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 227,222 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 70% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 10 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has scored higher than 7 of them.
