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 ...
Using MRI as a screening test alongside PSA density allowed detection of cancers that would have been missed by the blood test alone, according to new research. The REIMAGINE study, published today in ...
Biparametric MRI, which omits the dynamic contrast enhancement sequence, can detect clinically significant prostate cancer as well as multiparametric MRI. Biparametric MRI performs as well as ...
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 ...
Angus Chen covers all issues broadly related to cancer including drugs, policy, science, and equity. He joined STAT in 2021 after covering health and science at NPR and NPR affiliate stations. His ...
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 = ...
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 ...
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, ...
International experts have recommended quick and targeted MRI scans for prostate cancer screening. Some 21 urologists, radiologists and pathologists from Europe and the US agreed an "expert consensus ...
A full-body MRI scan uses magnets to create detailed images of organs and tissues across the body, to try to spot hidden ...
The REIMAGINE study, published today in BMJ Oncology, is the first study to use MRI scans with prostate specific antigen (PSA) density to assess the need for further standard NHS tests. Of the 29 ...
