Testing a faster MRI for prostate cancer detection
Part of Cancer, Kidney & urinary clinical trials.
This trial is testing a new, faster type of MRI scan (called biparametric MRI) to see if it can detect prostate cancer as well as the standard scan. It may help you avoid a longer scan and possibly reduce the need for contrast dye.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be 18 years old or older.
- Your doctor has referred you for an MRI of the prostate to check for possible prostate cancer.
- You have never been diagnosed with prostate cancer before.
- You do not have a hip implant, metal implants, or other devices that could interfere with the MRI scan.
- You are not currently in prison or jail.

This study uses a special MRI-guided (MRI-fusion) needle biopsy to look for early prostate cancer. It may help find concerning areas more accurately before cancer spreads.
This study uses a special kind of MRI to better “map” prostate cancer inside the prostate. Researchers compare the MRI results with the detailed tissue exam after prostate surgery to see how accurate the imaging is.
This trial studies special MRI images to learn how well they can find prostate cancer before treatment. It may help doctors choose better next steps during biopsy or during active surveillance.
This study checks whether a detailed MRI method can help find prostate cancer earlier in people considered high risk. You may be asked to get an MRI and help the team see if it works well as a screening test.
This study checks whether a faster prostate MRI and image-matching (image-fusion) can better find suspicious spots so doctors can target a biopsy. If you have concerning prostate exam results or PSA blood test results, you may get an MRI and, if something looks suspicious, a biopsy using MRI images.
This study tests if a special MRI measurement (ADC) can improve how well a standard MRI finds prostate cancer. If you have a suspicious MRI and are scheduled for a biopsy, this might help better understand your results.
