The proportion of patients and lesions with positive histopathologic result for prostate cancer (PCa) was analyzed. The learning curve for MRI-TRUS fusion BX was assessed at institutional and individual level. Positive BX lesions were further analyzed by PIRADS and Gleason scores.#The proportion of...
This study is the first to report intermediate-term outcomes from a prospective cohort of patients undergoing MRI-TULSA for prostate cancer. Ablative treatments have already proven to deliver the functional results that patients desire, but these cannot...
The current diagnostic pathway for prostate cancer has resulted in overdiagnosis and consequent overtreatment as well as underdiagnosis and missed diagnoses in many men. Multiparametric MRI (mpMRI) of the prostate has been identified as a test that
Urology 66 (Suppl 5A): S47–S51 Experience counts: MRI-based prostate-cancer staging Controversy rages over which imaging tech- nique to use in the localization and staging of prostate cancer. Many small studies have been done, with contradictory results, but the differences in the imaging ...
Prostate MRI image segmentation has been an area of intense research due to the increased use of MRI as a modality for the clinical workup of prostate cancer. Segmentation is useful for various tasks, e.g. to accurately localize prostate boundaries for radiotherapy or to initialize multi-modal ...

TULSA Effective in Controlling Prostate Cancer Long-Term— At 5 years, median PSA was reduced by 90%。 WASHINGTON -- Results from a long-term follow-up of the pivotal TACT trial showed that MRI-guided transurethral ul...
Prostate cancer is the most common male cancer in the UK. In many hospitals, patients are now being referred for a multiparametric (mp) MRI scan of their prostate as part of an evaluation for the presence of prostate cancer, prior to an ultrasound-guided biopsy. Prostate Imaging Reporting ...
Histopathologic results of MRI-targeted and systematic biopsy cores were compared using confusion matrices. Prediction model Prediction analysis of the first prostate biopsy core revealing the most relevant histopathologic diagnosis for the index lesion detected on mpMRI was performed in a subgroup of ...
Multiparametric MRI of the prostate is now recommended as the initial diagnostic test for men presenting with suspected prostate cancer, with a negative MRI enabling safe avoidance of biopsy and a positive result enabling MRI-directed sampling of lesions. The diagnostic pathway consists of several step...
