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 ...

Millions of men could benefit from a new, faster prostate cancer scan. The quicker, cheaper MRI scan was just as accurate at diagnosing prostate cancer in clinical trials as the current 30- to ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

A simple ten-minute scan picks up twice as many serious prostate cancer cases as existing blood tests, research published today suggests. Currently doctors use a prostate-specific antigen, or PSA, ...

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 ...

Global map of countries (n = 17) and the number of scanners (n = 64) that took part in phase II of the Global Variation in Magnetic Resonance Imaging Qualtiy of the Prostate (GLIMPSE) study. UK = ...

Fluorine-18 prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA)-1007 PET/CT was superior to multiparametric MRI for primary locoregional staging of prostate cancer, according to results from a phase II ...

A full-body MRI scan uses magnets to create detailed images of organs and tissues across the body, to try to spot hidden ...
