Utility of Biparametric MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) as a Screening Tool for Prostate Cancer in a High-Risk Cohort
Trial Parameters
Brief Summary
To determine whether using bpMRI in subjects who are at high risk of developing prostate cancer in conjunction with PSA will improve prostate cancer screening protocols.
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria: 1. PSA between 1.0 and 2.5 ng/dL 2. High risk for prostate cancer, i.e. Black or they have a first degree relative with history of prostate cancer (father, brother) or specific genetic syndromes i.e. BRCA 1/2, HOX B13, Lynch syndrome, ATM, CHEK2 3. Patient is willing to participated in prostate cancer screening 4. Patient is capable of giving informed consent Exclusion Criteria: 1. Nodularity or firmness of prostate on exam 2. Patient has undergone a prior biopsy or prostate surgery 3. Patient is taking 5-alpha reductase inhibitors to manage benign prostatic hyperplasia, as this can significantly alter PSA levels. 4. Patient has a history of UTI or prostatitis in the preceding 6 months, as this can significantly alter PSA levels. 5. Patient has a contraindication to MRI, these include but are not limited to pacemakers, neurostimulator devices, metal cardiac valves, certain tattoos, or foreign bodies 6. Participants that experience claustrophobia, anxiety and/or vert
