Background: Minimally invasive focal therapy of low- to intermediate-risk prostate cancer is becoming more common and has demonstrated lower morbidity compared to other treatments. Multiparametric prostate magnetic resonance imaging (mpMRI) has the potential to be an effective posttreatment evaluation method for residual/recurrent neoplasm.
Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the ability of mpMRI to detect residual/recurrent neoplasm after focal therapy treatment of prostate cancer using a 3-point Likert scale.
Article Synopsis
- * Out of 283 adrenal nodules studied, researchers found no malignant nodules in patients without a history of cancer, while a small percentage (4.7%) of patients with prior malignancies had metastatic adrenal nodules.
- * The study identified various signal loss patterns in the nodules, with diffuse heterogeneous signal loss being the most common, suggesting potential implications for radiologists in diagnosing and evaluating adrenal nodules.
