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 ...
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 ...
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 ...
AI detects prostate cancer more often than radiologists. Additionally, AI triggers false alarms half as often. This is shown by an international study coordinated by Radboud university medical center ...
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 ...
Early-onset prostate cancer is becoming increasingly prevalent, and MRI-first strategies are gaining interest as a potential screening tool. However, MRI characteristics of the prostate in younger men ...
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 ...
A quicker, cheaper MRI scan was just as accurate at diagnosing prostate cancer as the current 30-40 minute scan and should be rolled out to make MRI scans more accessible to men who need one, ...
Angus reports on the basic research, clinical science, and drug development that may transform survival and quality of life for patients, as well as developments affecting the cancer community. You ...
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 ...
This prognostic study created optimized ensembles of calibrated random forest models to predict clinically significant prostate cancer (csPCa, grade group ≥2 PCa) using total prostate-specific antigen ...
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 ...
