Course Description: This seminar will review the role of MRI combined with an advanced quantitative image analysis software solution (CAD) in the support of improved prostate cancer management. Specific areas covered will include how dynamic contrast-enhanced (DCE) MRI in conjunction with other MRI imaging techniques can improve the sensitivity and specificity of prostate cancer localization and detection as compared to current imaging practices. Specific case examples will be presented that demonstrate the value of DCE-MRI and CAD for pre-biopsy guidance, treatment planning, active surveillance, and therapy response monitoring.
