Proposed new system and old (modified) Gleason score:<ref name=jhu2014>URL: [http://urology.jhu.edu/newsletter/2014/prostate_cancer_2014_19.php http://urology.jhu.edu/newsletter/2014/prostate_cancer_2014_19.php]. Accessed on: 28 March 2015.</ref>
{| class="wikitable sortable"  style="margin-left:auto;margin-right:auto"
! Prognostic group
! Gleason score
|-
| I
| 3+3
|-
| II
| 3+4
|-
| III
| 4+3
|-
| IV
| 8 (4+4, 3+5, 5+3)
|-
| V
| 9 or 10 (4+5, 5+4, 5+5)
|}
 
Rationale:
*Patients won't be told they have 6 out of 10 cancer, and then think it is an intermediate grade cancer that is worrisome. Instead, they will be told they have 1 out of 5 cancer.<ref name=jhu2014>URL: [http://urology.jhu.edu/newsletter/2014/prostate_cancer_2014_19.php http://urology.jhu.edu/newsletter/2014/prostate_cancer_2014_19.php].
