- Authors
Chandrasekar, Thenappan; Dall'Era, Marc A.; Tilki, Derya
- Abstract
The article presents information on Multiparametric Magnetic resonance imaging (mpMRI), as a tool in the management of localized prostate cancer (PCa), particularly in the active surveillance (AS) setting. The topics discussed includes the effect of mpMRI incorporation based on updated National Institute of Health and Care Excellence (NICE) guidelines, and benefits of the use of mpMRI-targeted biopsies in addition to systematic biopsy to more accurately risk stratify men for AS.
