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 ...

For prostate biopsy planning, multiparametric MRI has relatively low specificity particularly for PI-RADS 3 and PI-RADS 4 ...

MRI-invisible prostate lesions. It sounds like the stuff of science fiction and fantasy, a creation from the minds of H.G. Wells, who wrote The Invisible Man, or J.K. Rowling, who authored the Harry ...

Ultra-high-field 5 T MRI improves prostate cancer image quality and diagnostic performance versus 3 T. Learn more about its potential.

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 ...

A recent BMJ Oncology study screens the prevalence of prostate magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) lesions in men based on age rather than prostate-specific antigen (PSA) levels. Study: Prevalence of MRI ...

A study presented at the American Urological Association annual meeting evaluated an intensified MRI-based screening program for men at high genetic risk for prostate cancer. The work that we were ...

Dec. 15, 2025 — For decades, when tests suggested that a man might have prostate cancer, the next step was usually a biopsy. The procedure, where a doctor uses a thin needle to collect prostate ...

Biparametric MRI, which omits dynamic contrast-enhanced sequences, similarly detected clinically significant prostate cancer to multiparametric MRI. Biparametric MRI was also noninferior to ...

Nearly 67% of men with MRI-detected lesions and more than half of those with clinically significant prostate cancer had a PSA level less than 3 ng/mL, investigators reported. Using magnetic resonance ...

It saved one man’s life. Yet doctors warn that scanning healthy people may uncover more problems than it solves ...
