Abstract

Prostate cancer is the commonest cancer in men in Europe and many countries worldwide, and the second commonest cause of cancer-related death. A screening programme to detect clinically relevant prostate cancer at a time when it can be cured, without burdensome overdiagnosis and subsequent overtreatment, is a laudable goal. We will set out the advances in MRI imaging, and the progress in MRI for men prior to biopsy, discussing whether MRI has a place before biopsy, or as a primary screening tool, in a modern approach to prostate cancer screening.
