New scans aim to pinpoint where prostate cancer returns

NCT ID NCT01857037

Summary

This study tested two imaging methods—a special ultrasound called Histoscanning and a detailed MRI—to see how well they could find and locate prostate cancer that has come back after radiation treatment. It involved 30 men whose cancer was suspected to have returned. The main goal was to compare the accuracy of these scans against standard biopsy results to see if they could guide doctors more precisely.
