Diffusion Basis Spectrum Imaging of the Prostate

Purpose

Diffusion Basis Spectrum Imaging (DBSI) represents a potential leap forward in improving prostate cancer early detection: a non-invasive and accurate imaging test for clinically significant prostate cancer.

Condition

  • Prostate Cancer

Eligibility

Eligible Ages
Over 18 Years
Eligible Sex
Male
Accepts Healthy Volunteers
No

Inclusion Criteria

  • Over 18 years of age and willing and able to provide informed consent. - Patients with no prior diagnosis of prostate cancer, who are planning to undergo prostate biopsy as clinical standard of care ("early detection cohort") - Including those men with: - an elevated PSA and no prior biopsy - an elevated PSA and a negative prior biopsy - Patients with a prior diagnosis of prostate cancer, who are currently managed with active surveillance, who are planning to undergo biopsy as clinical standard of care ("active surveillance cohort")

Exclusion Criteria

  • Patients with any clinical contraindication to MRI *Including but not limited to: - Those with metallic implants, such as pacemakers or implantable cardioverter-defibrillators - Those with cochlear implants - Those with claustrophobia not relieved with medications (patients with claustrophobia who do not need medications for the scan or whose claustrophobia can be managed with medication, are eligible to participate) - Those who cannot lie flat for over 1 hour - Patients with prior prostate surgery for prostate cancer (e.g. radical prostatectomy, focal ablation)

Arm Groups

ArmDescriptionAssigned Intervention
Experimental
Early Detection Cohort (MRI with DBSI)
- Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) with DBSI analysis prior to prostate biopsy - Standard of care prostate biopsy will be performed within 12 weeks of MRI - Some participants may go on to receive standard of care radical prostatectomy and those participants may have their prostatectomy specimens scanned via MRI with DBSI imaging
  • Device: MRI with DBSI analysis
    -The procedure will take approximately 1 hour of the participant's time
Experimental
Active Surveillance Cohort (MRI with DBSI)
- Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) with DBSI analysis prior to prostate biopsy - Standard of care prostate biopsy will be performed within 12 weeks of MRI - Some participants may go on to receive standard of care radical prostatectomy and those participants may have their prostatectomy specimens scanned via MRI with DBSI imaging
  • Device: MRI with DBSI analysis
    -The procedure will take approximately 1 hour of the participant's time
