A new urine test performed better than PSA-based testing and MRI for monitoring low-risk prostate cancers on active ...
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 ...
Upon reviewing repeated prostate cancer screenings, researchers observed the absence of suspicious MRI findings in over 86% of men who had prostate-specific antigen (PSA) levels of 3 ng/mL or higher ...
Omitting systematic biopsy in men with elevated prostate-specific antigen (PSA) levels and negative MRI results, and performing only targeted biopsy of MRI-positive lesions, eliminated more than half ...
Biparametric MRI, which omits dynamic contrast-enhanced sequences, similarly detected clinically significant prostate cancer to multiparametric MRI. Biparametric MRI was also noninferior to ...
Omitting biopsy in patients with a negative prostate MRI more than halves the diagnoses of clinically insignificant prostate cancer. Detection of clinically insignificant ISUP grade group 1 prostate ...
In a cohort of US veterans with prostate cancer who were on active surveillance, negative multiparametric MRI had a 75% negative predictive value for ruling out disease of grade group 2 or higher at ...
Targeting men in the top 10% of genetic risk helped detect high-grade prostate cancer that conventional screening would miss, paving the way for more personalized and effective early detection ...
Black men have a higher risk of prostate cancer. Surgery is sometimes the best treatment option for certain tumors. MSK ...
As part of the “Speaking Out” series, a radiation oncologist discusses the benefits of MRI-guided stereotactic body radiation therapy. Dr. Matthew Solhjem, a radiation oncologist with Providence ...
