Pre-biopsy MRIs can help doctors diagnose and treat prostate cancer more accurately. Here’s when you should get one.

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 ...

Baseline MRI PI-RADS score suggests prognosis and may improve upfront risk stratification and eligibility for prostate cancer active surveillance. Higher baseline MRI PI-RADS score is associated with ...

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 ...

Upon reviewing repeated prostate cancer screenings, researchers observed the absence of suspicious MRI findings in over 86% of men who had prostate-specific antigen (PSA) levels of 3 ng/mL or higher ...

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 ...

Stage 3 prostate cancer is locally advanced, with tumors extending beyond the prostate but not metastasizing distantly.

A UK-led international study has identified steps that can be taken to improve the quality of MRI scans for prostate cancer screening. Research, published in Radiology, found "relatively simple and ...

Real-world data demonstrate that multiparametric MRI has a lower negative predictive value than previously reported. WASHINGTON, DC—Prostate MRI may be less reliable for ruling out clinically ...
