did in fact prove to be sufficiently reliable: The study found that 96 percent of patients with a normal MRI result would not go on to develop aggressive prostate cancer within three years. Aggressive prostate cancer was detected during further monitoring in just four percent of...

Professor, said, "The thought that over half the men with clinically significant cancer had a PSA less than 3 ng/ml and would have been reassured that they didn't have cancer by a PSA test alone is a sobering one and reiterates the need to consider a new approach to prostate cancer ...
Multiparametric MRI is now recommended as the initial diagnostic test for men presenting with suspected prostate cancer. A negative MRI enables patients to safely avoid biopsy, whereas a positive MRI prompts targeted biopsy and pathologically accurate tissue sampling. The MRI-directed prostate cancer diag...
DCE T1-weighted MRI increases the sensitivity of MRI alone for the detection of recurrence during the follow-up of prostate cancer patients who have been treated with EBRT. Thus, DCE T1-weighted MRI must be used as part of the routine MRI analysis to check for tumor recurrence in patients ...
For women, pelvic MRI provides a detailed look at the ovaries and uterus and is often used to follow up an abnormality seen on ultrasound. It is also used to evaluate the spread ofcancer of the uterus. For men, pelvic MRI is sometimes used to check those diagnosed withprostate cancer. Pe...
