MRI of the prostate, combined with a blood test, can help determine if a prostate lesion is clinically significant cancer, new research suggests. A new meta-analysis by investigators from Brigham and ...

An imaging test could safely halve the number of people who need a biopsy for suspected prostate cancer following inconclusive or reassuring results from an MRI scan, new research has found. Findings ...

Primary endpoint analysis at 1 year showed better maintenance of erectile function and pad-free continence with TULSA than with robotic radical prostatectomy. Peri-procedural metrics favored TULSA, ...

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 ...

Angus Chen covers all issues broadly related to cancer including drugs, policy, science, and equity. He joined STAT in 2021 after covering health and science at NPR and NPR affiliate stations. His ...

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

MRI scans create detailed images of soft tissues and tumors, making them highly effective for detecting cancer in various parts of the body. However, they have limitations and may not detect all types ...

Men should be offered quick MRI scans lasting under 15 minutes to detect prostate cancer earlier, under new recommendations from international experts. Specialists say quick, targeted MRI scans could ...

Among patients with prostate cancer who received MRI-guided stereotactic body radiation therapy (SABR), more than 80% demonstrated “classic” neurovascular bundle patterns and over 96% showed more than ...
