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 ...
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 ...
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 ...
A twist on magnetic resonance imaging that does not require gadolinium contrast appears to be as effective as standard imaging at detecting prostate cancers, according to a new study in JAMA. Experts ...
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, ...
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 ...
Data on the efficacy and safety of screening for prostate cancer with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) are needed from studies of follow-up screening. In a population-based trial that started in 2015, ...
