Accurate Prostate Cancer Following Using Low-Field MRI (Low-PRISM)
Sponsor: University of Lausanne Hospitals
Summary
This study compares the effectiveness of low-field MRI (0.55T) with high-field MRI (3T) in prostate cancer screening and image quality. It consists of three phases: optimizing the low-field MRI protocol with healthy volunteers, evaluating image quality in patients with metallic artifacts (like hip prostheses), and assessing low-field MRI in patients with suspicious prostate lesions found on high-field MRI.
