Utility of Biparametric MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) as a Screening Tool for Prostate Cancer in a High-Risk Cohort
Sponsor: Northwell Health
Summary
To determine whether using bpMRI in subjects who are at high risk of developing prostate cancer in conjunction with PSA will improve prostate cancer screening protocols.

Bi-parametric MRI
When used for the evaluation of prostate cancer, MRI typically involves multiple sequences and typically includes typical T1 and T2 phases with the addition of diffusion weighted imaging and dynamic contrast enhanced imaging. In this study, we have decided to omit dynamic contrast enhanced imaging due to its decreased diagnostic yield relative to T2 and DWI and associated increased risk of contrast agents, this is a common approach for prostate cancer screening and is referred to as a bi-parametric MRI
