Primary endpoint analysis at 1 year showed better maintenance of erectile function and pad-free continence with TULSA than with robotic radical prostatectomy. Peri-procedural metrics favored TULSA, ...

There are several strategies for the early detection of prostate cancer. The first step is often a blood test for prostate-specific antigen (PSA). If PSA levels exceed a certain threshold, the next ...

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 of the prostate, combined with a blood test, can help determine if a prostate lesion is clinically significant cancer, new research suggests An enlarged prostate or potential prostate cancer is a ...

– First multicenter, randomized controlled trial directly comparing a new technology to robotic RP for men with localized prostate cancer to successfully recruit to target enrollment – – TULSA ...

Combining MRI-guided biopsy of the prostate with conventional ultrasound-guided 12-core prostate biopsy was superior to either technique alone at ruling out more aggressive cancers, and beat ...

A large screening trial showed that using prostate-specific antigen density (PSAD) before MRI prevented overdiagnosis and lowered resource use while preserving the detection of clinically significant ...

An imaging test could safely halve the number of people who need a biopsy for suspected prostate cancer following inconclusive or reassuring results from an MRI scan, new research has found. Findings ...

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 ...
