Timothy A. Masterson studies the diagnosis and surgical treatment of testicular cancer, with a particular focus on retroperitoneal lymph node dissection (a surgery to remove lymph nodes in the back of the abdomen where these cancers spread). Much of the recent work explores circulating tumor DNA (fragments of cancer DNA found in the blood) as a biomarker to guide treatment decisions, alongside studies of surgical outcomes and cancer staging. The research also touches on broader urologic oncology topics such as bladder, prostate, and sarcoma cancers.
