Diagnostic Imaging's Top Five Prostate Imaging Content of 2023

For patients with recurrent or metastatic prostate cancer, new research findings showed no significant difference in the sensitivity of 18F-piflufolastat PET/CT between patients on concurrent hormone therapy and those without hormone therapy.

While PSMA PET/CT revealed an 87 percent local remission rate after metastasis-directed radiotherapy for oligometastatic prostate cancer in a new study, researchers also found that 80 percent of patients had biochemical progression at a median 32-month follow-up.

Offering expedited calculation of prostate volume, Clarius Prostate AI is reportedly the first AI-enabled prostate measurement tool to garner FDA clearance for use with handheld ultrasound.

Demonstrating no significant difference with radiologist detection of clinically significant prostate cancer (csPCa), a biparametric MRI-based AI model provided an 88.4 percent sensitivity rate in a recent study.

Recent research demonstrated a 59 percent reduced risk of progression or death with the radioligand therapy Pluvicto in comparison to a change of androgen receptor pathway inhibitor (ARPI) for patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC).

Microultrasonography-guided biopsy offered comparable detection as MRI/conventional ultrasound-guided biopsy in detection of Gleason grade group 2 or higher prostate cancer, according to a new international multicenter study.
