First multicenter, randomized controlled trial directly comparing a new technology to robotic RP for men with localized prostate cancer to ...

Scans that make prostate cancer cells glow can eliminate the need for invasive biopsies and cut false positive—and they're ...

Can AI match radiologists in prostate MRI diagnosis? The PARADIGM trial will assess AI detection of clinically significant ...

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 ...

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 ...

An imaging test could safely halve the number of people who need a biopsy for suspected prostate cancer following ...

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, ...

MRI-based prostate cancer screening of the general population does not increase detection of clinically significant prostate cancer, but it does improve the benefit-vs-harm profile of PSA testing ...

The study protocol was approved by the institutional review board of Hokkaido University Hospital, and patient consent was not deemed necessary because data were obtained from medical charts and ...

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 ...

Prostate MRI currently lacks the accuracy to replace biopsies in active surveillance for prostate cancer. The negative predictive value of MRI remains below 90%, the general goal for safely avoiding ...
