MRI and prostate lesions: understanding diagnosis and prognosis
Part of Cancer, Kidney & urinary clinical trials.
This trial uses MRI scans to study prostate lesions and see how they relate to diagnosis, pathology, and long-term outcomes. It may help patients with concerns about prostate health get more detailed imaging.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are an adult male with a PSA level higher than 4.0 ng/ml or an abnormal digital rectal exam.
- You must have been found to have a suspicious lesion on a prostate ultrasound, CT, or MRI.
- You are required to sign a consent form to participate.
- You cannot have a pacemaker, metal implants, or severe claustrophobia.
- You must not have had a prostate biopsy, surgery, or anti-cancer treatment before the MRI.

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 trial uses advanced MRI scans and detailed tissue analysis to better detect prostate cancer. It is for people with confirmed prostate cancer who are already scheduled for prostate removal surgery.
This study tests a new MRI platform to better identify prostate issues before a biopsy. It is for people with elevated PSA whose doctor is considering a biopsy.
This study tests whether new MRI imaging methods can better identify and grade prostate cancer in men with elevated PSA levels. You would get an MRI scan to help doctors see if cancer is present and how aggressive it might be.
This trial uses repeated MRI scans to monitor prostate lesions that have a low chance of being aggressive cancer. It is for people who have suspicious spots but whose initial biopsies did not find high-grade cancer.
This study uses a special type of MRI to look at suspicious spots in the prostate. It may help doctors decide if you need a biopsy or can safely avoid one.
