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 ...

Abnormal PSA test results leading to MRI scans is mainstream practice in prostate cancer diagnosis. However, a similar algorithm may lead to under-detection of clinically significant prostate cancer ...

Data on the efficacy and safety of screening for prostate cancer with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) are needed from studies of follow-up screening. In a population-based trial that started in 2015, ...

Screening for prostate cancer is burdened by a high rate of overdiagnosis. The most appropriate algorithm for population-based screening is unknown. We invited 37,887 men who were 50 to 60 years of ...

To prospectively compare the image quality and diagnostic performance of ultra-high-field 5 T MRI with that of standard 3 T in patients with suspected prostate cancer (PCa). 5 T MRI demonstrated ...

A twist on magnetic resonance imaging that does not require gadolinium contrast appears to be as effective as standard imaging at detecting prostate cancers, according to a new study in JAMA. Experts ...

Experts are urging officials to rethink their decision on prostate cancer screening, after an MRI approach was shown to slash ...
