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, ...
A single round of prostate cancer screening that included a prostate-specific antigen (PSA) test, a kallikrein panel, and an MRI detected one additional high-grade cancer per 196 men and one low-grade ...
