MRI preparation depends on the type of scan, the area of your body being scanned, and whether the scan requires contrast dye. It’s important to discuss prep with your doctor beforehand. In rare, ...

There are several strategies for the early detection of prostate cancer. The first step is often a blood test for prostate-specific antigen (PSA). If PSA levels exceed a certain threshold, the next ...

In a cohort of US veterans with prostate cancer who were on active surveillance, negative multiparametric MRI had a 75% negative predictive value for ruling out disease of grade group 2 or higher at ...

Biparametric MRI, which omits dynamic contrast-enhanced sequences, similarly detected clinically significant prostate cancer to multiparametric MRI. Biparametric MRI was also noninferior to ...

High-resolution microultrasonography-guided biopsy was non-inferior to MRI fusion-guided biopsy for detecting clinically significant prostate cancer (detection rates, 47.1% and 42.6%, respectively), a ...

Biparametric MRI, which omits the dynamic contrast enhancement sequence, can detect clinically significant prostate cancer as well as multiparametric MRI. Biparametric MRI performs as well as ...

MARKHAM, Ontario--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Exact Imaging today announced results from its OPTIMUM clinical trial demonstrating the non-inferiority of its ExactVu™ micro-ultrasound platform to MRI ...

As part of the “Speaking Out” series, a radiation oncologist discusses the benefits of MRI-guided stereotactic body radiation therapy. Dr. Matthew Solhjem, a radiation oncologist with Providence ...

A trial found no meaningful difference in detection of clinically significantly prostate cancer between multiparametric MRI-based and microultrasound-based biopsy techniques.

Microultrasonography for prostate biopsy detected clinically significant cancer at rates comparable to MRI-guided approaches. Detection rates for clinically insignificant cancers did not differ among ...
