MRI for the Diagnosis of Prostate Cancer in Men at High Risk of Developing Prostate Cancer

Trial Status: active

This clinical trial studies how well magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) works in diagnosing prostate cancer in men at high risk of developing prostate cancer. An MRI exam is a procedure in which radio waves and powerful magnet linked to a computer are used to created detailed pictures of areas inside the body. These pictures can show the difference between normal and diseased tissue. This trial may help researchers determine if early MRI screening can improve the detection of high-grade prostate cancer in men at high-risk of developing prostate cancer. This may improve the diagnosis and management for prostate cancer and outcomes for future patients.
