Multiparametric Ultrasound Imaging in Prostate Cancer

NCT03101176 · Status: UNKNOWN · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 200

Last updated 2019-01-17

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Rationale: The current limitations in prostate cancer diagnostics, due to lack of accuracy of the available techniques, lead to over- and undertreatment for a significant fraction of patients with prostate cancer. Multiparametric ultrasound (mpUS), a new imaging modality combining different ultrasound parameters, heralds the potential for an accurate imaging-based diagnostic approach accessible to the community at large but formal validation of mpUS against final pathology results are still lacking.

Objective: To validate mpUS as imaging modality for detection and localization of prostate cancer by direct correlation with histopathology of radical prostatectomy specimens
