About The Study: In men with suspected prostate cancer, provided image quality is adequate, an abbreviated biparametric magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan, with or without targeted biopsy, could become the new standard of care for prostate cancer diagnosis. With approximately 4 million prostate MRIs performed globally annually, adopting biparametric MRI could substantially increase scanner throughput and reduce costs worldwide.
