Using MRI scans to screen men for prostate cancer could reduce deaths from the disease “significantly”, researchers have suggested. Scientists said current tests, which detect the level of the ...

Intermountain Medical Center unveiled a new abbreviated MRI screening on Friday for women at high risk of breast cancer. The hyper-sensitive screening can detect up to twice as many cancers as a ...

Now, thanks to one Utah clinic, you can get an MRI cancer screening without a doctor's order\u2014or insurance.

On the other hand, combining a PSA test with an MRI scan of the prostate would make screening more accurate, especially if the dual test were recommended only for those at high risk of the tumour.

As well, instead of continuing to use the same standard MRI screening form that is typically used in a nonemergency setting, the team whittled it down to a few basic questions.

Randall Jones, president of FirstScan, has developed MRI coils to do a non-invasive scan of the prostate gland, here modeled on a mannequin. Now patients can get a screening for $595, whether they ...

Abstract This session introduces basic concepts of imaging-based high-throughput screening (HTS) and high-throughput profiling assay development. Imaging-based HTS assays are designed to evaluate a ...

Despite guidelines and evidence supporting annual breast MRI for breast cancer screening in women with BRCA 1/2 genetic mutations, denial of coverage is becoming more common.

Digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) screening supplemented by MRI for women with dense breasts led to both greater benefits and increased harms in a model-based comparative effectiveness analysis.

Using MRI as a screening test alongside PSA density allowed detection of cancers that would have been missed by the blood test alone, according to new research.

MRI was the most effective supplemental breast cancer screening method for women with dense breasts and negative mammogram results, according to a review and meta-analysis published in Radiology.

MRI screening can also produce more false-positive results, the study found. It can also be more expensive and requires a contrast agent injection.
