MRIs are powerful tools in the cancer-fighting arsenal, but despite their efficacy, they aren't infallible, and some cancers ...
AI detects prostate cancer more often than radiologists. Additionally, AI triggers false alarms half as often. This is shown by an international study coordinated by Radboud university medical center ...
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 ...
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 multicentre study shows that MRI-based local T staging provides risk discrimination similar to digital rectal examinations ...
A team of researchers in Australia and New Zealand has found that MRI scans can detect prostate cancer more accurately than the newer, prostate-specific -PSMA PET/CT scanning technique. The findings ...
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, ...
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, ...
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 ...
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 ...
