🚨 MRI-first screening w/o contrast finds more ≥GG2 #ProstateCancer 🚨
@EurUrol
👥 759 pts randomized
📊 Biparametric MRI first vs MRI only if PSA ≥3
⏱️ 15 min scan, no contrast
✅ csPCa detected: 4.6% vs 1.8% (RR 2.6, 95% CI 1.1-6.1)
✅ Several csPCa found in pts w/ normal PSA
⚠️ More biopsies in MRI-first arm (10.8% vs 5.2%)
🎯 A FAST⚡️ contrast-free MRI up front catches significant PCa a PSA screen might miss

POSTER 2) Among men undergoing MR fusion prostate biopsy for unilateral PIRADS 3 or
4 lesions, transperineal biopsy resulted in greater disease detection for both targeted fusion and systematic samples. TP biopsy may provide a more thorough pre-treatment assessment for FT.

Another win for focal therapy

#Urores - @AmerUrological Census is now up and running; take 5 mins, fill it out, help inform future family leave policies, among others. Even w/o in-person push at #AUA20 (# that never was) no reason you can't still take it remotely!! Did you ever wear the free T shirt anyway?
Is keeping all of our children out of daycare and school really helping more than hurting right now? It doesn’t seem sustainable and certainly isn’t good for their minds. economist.com/leaders/2020/0…
