Multiparametric-magnetic resonance imaging (mp-MRI) has shown promising results in diagnosis, localization, risk stratification and staging of clinically significant prostate cancer. It has also opened up opportunities for focal treatment of prostate cancer.

The multiparametric MRI (mpMRI) is a special type of MRI scan that produces a more detailed picture of your prostate gland than a standard MRI scan does. You usually have an mpMRI scan if doctors suspect that you have prostate cancer.

2020年4月7日 · Over the past decade, multipara-metric MRI (mpMRI) has played an increasing role in prostate cancer imaging, including tumor detection, tumor characterization, risk stratification, local staging, and image guidance for biopsy and focal therapy.

The Multi-parametric Prostate MRI Consensus Panel has performed a thorough literature review and examined the prostate MRI technique and parameters along with potential applications of this imaging modality in the diagnosis, staging, and management of men with clinically localized prostate cancer.

In patients with known or suspected prostate cancer, mpMRI may improve care by providing an individualized assessment of clinically significant cancer risk and by improving the yield of...

2017年1月6日 · Multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (mpMRI) of the prostate is revolutionizing the diagnosis of prostate cancer by providing high quality images with excellent tissue contrast.

2019年7月17日 · Multiparametric MRI (mpMRI) of the prostate is a novel promising tool for diagnosis of prostate cancer that might help to reduce overdiagnosis of insignificant prostate cancer. mpMRI...

Multiparametric MRI (mpMRI) of the prostate has become integral in the management of prostate cancer. MpMRI can identify the areas within the prostate that are most suspicious for malignancy using a combination of T2-weighted imaging (T2WI), diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI), and dynamic contrast-enhanced (DCE) imaging, allowing for MRI-guided ...

2024年8月24日 · For today’s MRI of the prostate, we capture multiple types of visual information by using three different imaging sequences, or parameters—thus the term multiparametric MRI, or simply mpMRI. Each sequence differs from the others based on gradient modulations, and the pulse sequence and direction.

What is “multiparametric” MRI? Multiparametric (mp) MRI of the prostate is essentially any functional form of imaging used to supplement standard anatomical T1 and T2-weighted imaging. The functional sequences of choice are dynamic contrast-enhanced (DCE) MRI and diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI), including the calculation of apparent diffusion
