MRI of the prostate, combined with a blood test, can help determine if a prostate lesion is clinically significant cancer, new research suggests. A new meta-analysis by investigators from Brigham and ...
A prostate biopsy checks for prostate cancer by extracting tissue samples. A transperineal biopsy has a lower infection risk than a transrectal biopsy. Biopsy results are usually ready within about ...
68 Ga-PSMA PET/MRI examples of PRIMARY scores. T2WI = T2-weighted image; PZ = peripheral zone; CZ = central zone. Reston, VA—PET/MRI can improve diagnostic accuracy for prostate cancer patients and ...
Prostate MRI currently lacks the accuracy to replace biopsies in active surveillance for prostate cancer. The negative predictive value of MRI remains below 90%, the general goal for safely avoiding ...
A quicker, cheaper MRI scan was just as accurate at diagnosing prostate cancer as the current 30-40 minute scan and should be rolled out to make MRI scans more accessible to men who need one, ...
Omitting biopsy in patients with a negative prostate MRI more than halves the diagnoses of clinically insignificant prostate cancer. Detection of clinically insignificant ISUP grade group 1 prostate ...
The first OnQ Prostate-assisted Focal One® Robotic HIFU procedure was successfully performed at UCSF, improving prostate cancer treatment precision. Cortechs.ai and EDAP TMS have announced the ...
Omitting systematic biopsy in men with elevated prostate-specific antigen (PSA) levels and negative MRI results, and performing only targeted biopsy of MRI-positive lesions, eliminated more than half ...
