The goal of this investigation from Germany was to prospectively compare multiparametric MRI (1H-MR spectroscopy (MRS), diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI), contrast-enhanced) and standard T2W MRI at 1.5 ...
A combined PSMA-PET/MRI scanner better detected clinically significant prostate cancer in men on active surveillance. The addition of piflufolastat F18 (18 F-DCFPyL) prostate-specific membrane antigen ...
In patients with biochemical failure after prostatectomy, about two thirds showed detectable local disease at restaging. Multiparametric MRI alone detected local lesions in over one third of patients ...
Among 134 men undergoing radical prostatectomy, PSMA PET accurately identified pathological tumor stage in 45% of patients compared with 28% of patients with MRI (P=0.003), reported Adam Kinnaird, MD, ...

A revolutionary prostate biopsy approach uses fewer needles and is more accurate for diagnosing prostate cancer. It is done during a real time MRI (magnetic resonance imaging) scan that clearly shows ...
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 ...
Comparison of transperineal and transrectal biopsy approaches to detect clinically significant prostate cancer in patients undergoing MRI fusion prostate biopsy: A lesion level analysis. Multivariate ...
Abbreviated breast MRI shortens exam time while retaining a high level of diagnostic accuracy of breast cancer in women with extremely dense breasts, according to an article published today in ...
Medical professionals can use an MRI to examine the structure and function of your liver. MRIs are highly accurate and don’t use radiation. However, they can be expensive and not everyone is a ...
