An emerging nomogram model for intra-tumoral heterogeneity quantification with breast MRI demonstrated an average 85 percent sensitivity in external validation testing for predicting pathologic complete response to neoadjuvant chemotherapy for breast cancer.
Study: Monitoring of Prostate MRI Exams Could Lead to 75 Percent Reduction of Gadolinium Contrast
March 17th 2025While DCE MRI was deemed helpful in over 67 percent of cases in which it was used, researchers found that monitored prostate MRI exams, which facilitated a 75 percent reduction of DCE MRI sequences, had comparable sensitivity for prostate cancer as non-monitored exams.
Meta-Analysis Shows No Difference Between bpMRI and mpMRI in Ruling Out csPCa
March 6th 2025In an 18-study meta-analysis involving over 4,600 patients, researchers found that bpMRI and mpMRI had equivalent pooled negative predictive value (NPV) of 92 percent for clinically significant prostate cancer (csPCa).
Emerging AI Software for Prostate MRI Offers 95 Percent Sensitivity for csPCa
February 28th 2025In a multicenter study involving over 1,000 patients, a deep learning software offered comparable sensitivity and specificity for Gleason grade group > 2 tumors in comparison to radiologist interpretation.
Prostate MRI Study Examines Key Predictors of False-Negative and False-Positive Results
February 17th 2025Researchers found that patients with high PSA density have more than double the risk of false-negative findings on prostate MRI and those with low PSA density are significantly less likely to have false-positive results.
