(HealthDay News) — Prostate biopsies that combine magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) technology with ultrasound appear to give men better information regarding the seriousness of their cancer, according ...
A trial found no meaningful difference in detection of clinically significantly prostate cancer between multiparametric MRI-based and microultrasound-based biopsy techniques.
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 ...
High-resolution microultrasonography-guided biopsy was non-inferior to MRI fusion-guided biopsy for detecting clinically significant prostate cancer (detection rates, 47.1% and 42.6%, respectively), a ...
September is National Prostate Cancer Awareness Month, an important time to bring awareness to prostate health. The prostate gland is a male reproductive organ about the size of a ping-pong ball that ...
Excluding systematic biopsy in favor of MRI-targeted biopsy in men with elevated prostate-specific antigen (PSA) levels reduced the probability of detecting clinically insignificant cancers, but at ...
Investigators ran a simulation of a hypothetical group of 65-year-old men who were at risk for the cancer, as indicated by their prostate-specific antigen (PSA) levels. The costs and benefits of ...
Dec. 15, 2025 — For decades, when tests suggested that a man might have prostate cancer, the next step was usually a biopsy. The procedure, where a doctor uses a thin needle to collect prostate ...
