Biopsies guided by high resolution ultrasound are as effective as those using MRI in diagnosing prostate cancer, an international clinical trial has shown. The technology, called micro-ultrasound ...

A clinical trial co-led by Yale Urology showed high resolution micro-ultrasound is an effective tool for guiding prostate ...

Earlier this week, researchers presented data from the OPTIMUM (Optimization of Prostate Biopsy – Micro-Ultrasound Versus MRI) trial at the European Association of Urology Congress in Madrid, Spain.

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 ...

Ideally, prostate MRI should not be performed for at least ... The advantages of DWI are high-contrast resolution between normal prostate and cancerous tissue, and its short acquisition time.

For men at the highest risk of prostate cancer as determined by a polygenic risk score, the percentage found to have ...

A UK study found that using a polygenic risk score to identify men at highest genetic risk of prostate cancer significantly ...

A trial tested MRI and microultrasonography guided biopsy separately and in combination for the detection of clinically significant prostate cancer.

A new international study has shown that a new imaging method called micro-ultrasound (microUS) is just as effective as MRI ...
