Choline-PET with mpMRI is cost-effective for prostate cancer
By Wayne Forrest
Adding F-18 choline PET to multiparametric MRI (mpMRI) was more effective than mpMRI alone in determining which men with elevated prostate-specific antigen levels should go on to biopsy in a new study, published online July 26 in the Journal of Nuclear Medicine.

Which biopsy method best detects prostate cancer?
By Wayne Forrest
The combination of ultrasound- and MRI-guided biopsy yields the best chance of detecting prostate cancer, as each method can find malignant lesions missed by the other, researchers from the University of California, Los Angeles reported in a study published online June 12 in JAMA Surgery.

Could Ga-68 PSMA PET become essential for prostate cancer?
By Wayne Forrest
Coupling the radiopharmaceutical gallium-68 (Ga-68) prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) with PET/CT or PET/MRI has been a boon for prostate cancer imaging. But clinicians still need to be aware of some inherent shortcomings with the radiopharmaceutical, according to a research review published online April 12 in Urology.

AI can identify, classify prostate cancer on mpMRI
By Erik L. Ridley
An artificial intelligence (AI) algorithm called FocalNet was able to identify prostate cancer on multiparametric MRI (mpMRI) nearly as well as experienced radiologists and also predicted the lesion's aggressiveness, according to research presented at the recent IEEE International Symposium on Biomedical Imaging in Venice, Italy.
