Piergiuseppe Colombo

Piergiuseppe Colombo is an Associate Professor of Pathological Anatomy at Humanitas University (Milan, Italy), specializing in urological oncopathology and sarcomas. He holds roles in academic training, including Adjunct Teaching Professor roles in specialized programs. His research focuses on diagnostic advancements in prostate and bladder cancers, molecular pathology, and imaging techniques like PSMA PET/CT and HIFU.

Education: Graduated in Medicine from the University of Milan (1995), specialized in Pathological Anatomy (1999). He has held leadership roles, including Head of Surgical Diagnostics in Pathological Anatomy (2009), and sits on national panels for histological review of prostatic biopsies (PRIAS) and the Genitourinary Pathology Society (GUPS).

Research Interests: Urological cancers (prostate/bladder), sarcomas, molecular diagnostics, tumor immune microenvironment, imaging innovations (PSMA PET/CT, micro-ultrasound), and clinical trials for focal therapies.

Publications highlight studies on tumor biology, diagnostic accuracy, and clinical outcomes in cancer management. His work bridges laboratory research (e.g., immune profiling) with clinical applications (e.g., HIFU focal therapy for prostate cancer).

Teaching: Lectured in oncological pharmacology, urology, and pathological anatomy at Humanitas University and the University of Milan. Active in mentoring through specialization programs.
