Trends in targeted prostate brachytherapy: from multiparametric MRI to nanomolecular radiosensitizers
The treatment of localized prostate cancer is expected to become a significant problem in the next decade as an increasingly aging population becomes prone to developing the disease. Recent research into the biological nature of prostate cancer has shown that large localized doses of radiation to the cancer offer excellent long-term disease control. Brachytherapy, a form of localized radiation ...
متن کاملMultiparametric MRI-Targeted TRUS Prostate Biopsies Using Visual Registration
Prebiopsy multiparametric prostate MRI (mp-MRI), followed by transrectal ultrasound-guided (TRUS-G) target biopsies (TB) of the prostate is a key combination for the diagnosis of clinically significant prostate cancers (CSPCa), to avoid prostate cancer (PCa) overtreatment. Several techniques are available for guiding TB to the suspicious mp-MRI targets, but the simplest, cheapest, and easiest t...
متن کاملMultiparametric MRI in Prostate Cancer
Prostate cancer (PCa) is the second most common cancer in men and an estimated 1.1 million men worldwide were diagnosed with prostate cancer in 2012 with almost 70% of the cases occurring in more developed regions [1]. With an estimated 307.00 deaths in 2012, prostate cancer is the fifth leading cause of death from cancer in men [1]. In patients with elevated or rising prostate-specific antigen...

متن کاملAssociation of multiparametric MRI quantitative imaging features with prostate cancer gene expression in MRI-targeted prostate biopsies
Standard clinicopathological variables are inadequate for optimal management of prostate cancer patients. While genomic classifiers have improved patient risk classification, the multifocality and heterogeneity of prostate cancer can confound pre-treatment assessment. The objective was to investigate the association of multiparametric (mp)MRI quantitative features with prostate cancer risk gene...
