Oxygen-enhanced MRI may change how prostate cancer is treated, especially for men undergoing radiation therapy. Learn how this groundbreaking imaging technique can reduce radiation doses by tracking tumor response in real-time. keep reading

Multiparametric MRI (mpMRI) has proven itself as a powerful tool in detecting significant prostate cancer. By accurately identifying suspicious areas and distinguishing aggressive tumors from those that pose less risk, mpMRI is helping reduce unnecessary biopsies and providing clearer, more reliable diagnostic information for better treatment decisions. keep reading

Combining multiparametric MRI with genomic testing is revolutionizing prostate cancer detection and treatment. By leveraging the strengths of both technologies, doctors can achieve more accurate diagnoses, guide personalized treatment decisions, and improve patient outcomes. Learn how these tools are shaping the future of prostate cancer care. keep reading

A new consensus on MRI follow-up after focal therapy for prostate cancer offers fresh guidelines for detecting recurrence. Learn how these recommendations can enhance patient outcomes and standardize MRI protocols. keep reading

Research shows that only three needles may be required for an accurate in-bore MRI-guided biopsy. This approach reduces patient discomfort, shortens procedure time, and maintains high diagnostic accuracy compared to traditional methods involving more needles. keep reading

Based on the standard five-letter grading system (A, B, C, D, F), getting your report card may or may not have been a time of dread. However, that system did not raise every kid’s anxiety until its universal adoption by U.S. schools in the 1940s. Were you ever curious as to why the letter E keep reading

No radiologist was born knowing how to interpret MRI scans of the prostate gland. They must be trained to interpret images, and the rate at which they improve is called their learning curve. According to Rosencrantz et al. (2017), At a basic level, by seeing many cases, radiologists experience innate self-directed visual learning, even without keep reading

MRI is replacing outdated prostate cancer detection methods, offering better accuracy and fewer unnecessary biopsies. Learn how this advanced screening tool is transforming patient care and reducing the risks associated with traditional PSA and biopsy pathways. keep reading

You lie calmly on your back in the tunnel (bore) of a large machine. You can’t feel it, but you are now in an invisible magnetic field. After a while, your scanning session is done. Abracadabra! Presto! Such is the magic of Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) that your doctor can examine and analyze your gland keep reading

Artificial Intelligence is transforming prostate MRI interpretation, making it faster and more precise. See how this breakthrough technology is elevating prostate health diagnostics. keep reading
