A Yale-led study examines the potential environmental benefits of more carefully selecting patients for prostate biopsy in a way that can also spare low-yield and potentially harmful procedures. Yale ...
Prostate zonal anatomy is best demonstrated with MRI. On T2-weighted sequences, the normal prostate can be divided into the peripheral zone, which shows high signal intensity owing to its high water ...
The first OnQ Prostate-assisted Focal One® Robotic HIFU procedure was successfully performed at UCSF, improving prostate cancer treatment precision. Cortechs.ai and EDAP TMS have announced the ...

Prostate cancer is the second-leading cause of cancer deaths in American men. Further, non-Hispanic Blacks have a higher incidence of prostate cancer and are more likely to die from it than are ...
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 ...
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 ...
Omitting biopsy in patients with a negative prostate MRI more than halves the diagnoses of clinically insignificant prostate cancer. Detection of clinically insignificant ISUP grade group 1 prostate ...
