In a study involving over 1,000 visible prostate lesions on biparametric MRI, a deep learning algorithm detected 96 percent of clinically significant prostate cancer (csPCa) in comparison to a 98 percent detection rate for an expert genitourinary radiologist.

A point-based model that incorporates prostate MRI findings offered a sensitivity rate of 89.5 percent for detecting clinically significant prostate cancer and could prevent over 20 percent of biopsies, according to new research.

Supplemental breast MRI had a cancer detection rate (CDR) of 20/1000 and a positive predictive value (PPV) of 50 percent, according to preliminary findings from a prospective trial involving women with heterogeneously or very dense breasts.

In addition to enhanced resolution, the uMR Jupiter 5T device reportedly addresses image uniformity and radiofrequency safety that have been previous challenges with ultra-high-field MRI.

In finalized updates to breast cancer screening recommendations, the United States Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) advocates biennial mammography screening for women 40 to 74 years of age and notes insufficient evidence for the use of supplemental MRI in women with dense breasts.

Examining current trends in brain cancer diagnostics, these authors discuss diagnostic imaging advances, pathways with adaptive radiotherapy and the ongoing quest to provide optimal precision with dosimetry.

A recent meta-analysis found that multiparametric MRI and PET/CT had comparable detection rates for diagnosing prostate cancer recurrence.

For the prediction of axillary lymph node metastasis in patients with breast cancer, an MRI-based, 4D convolutional neural network model demonstrated an AUC of 87 percent and sensitivity of 89 percent, according to new research.

An MRI-based machine learning model demonstrated a comparable background parenchymal enhancement (BPE) hazard ratio to that of manual BPE assessment for breast cancer, according to a study of over 4,500 women with dense breasts.

Up to 48 percent of unnecessary prostate biopsies could be eliminated by limiting biopsy to patients with PI-RADS 4 and higher MRI assessments and a prostate-specific antigen density level below 0.15 ng/mL2, according to a new meta-analysis.

In a new literature review, researchers noted key findings on the use of breast MRI in facilitating breast cancer detection for women with dense breasts and others at high-risk for breast cancer.
