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 ...
Abbreviated biparametric MRI was noninferior to full multiparametric MRI in detecting clinically significant prostate cancer in the prospective PRIME study, suggesting that it could become the new ...
MRI-based prostate cancer screening of the general population does not increase detection of clinically significant prostate cancer, but it does improve the benefit-vs-harm profile of PSA testing ...

New MRI scan could detect prostate cancer in minutes
Millions of men could benefit from a new, faster prostate cancer scan. The quicker, cheaper MRI scan was just as accurate at diagnosing prostate cancer in clinical trials as the current 30- to ...
A large screening trial showed that using prostate-specific antigen density (PSAD) before MRI prevented overdiagnosis and lowered resource use while preserving the detection of clinically significant ...
Prostate cancer surgeons routinely use MRI to guide surgical planning, yet imaging findings are not used for risk stratification in standard prognostic models. A new meta-analysis suggests they should ...
New Corewell Health research suggests an MRI scan can help predict whether patients with intermediate-risk prostate cancer (cancer confined to the entire prostate) may have more aggressive cancer in ...
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 ...
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 ...
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 ...
Fluorine-18 prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA)-1007 PET/CT was superior to multiparametric MRI for primary locoregional staging of prostate cancer, according to results from a phase II ...

Doctors may have found an easier way to treat prostate cancer — could become new ‘standard of care’
Less is more in the case of this cancer treatment. The most common form of cancer among men in the US, after skin cancer, ...
