How MRI With Contrast Works

An MRI with contrast uses a special dye to make blood vessels, organs, and tissues stand out more clearly. The dye used in MRI with contrast contains gadolinium and is delivered through an IV, orally, ...
Using MRI instead of CT guidance to zero in on prostate tumors enables more precise delivery of SBRT and lowers side effect rates. MRI vs CT guidance reduces side effects from prostate cancer ...
After a comprehensive two-year follow-up, researchers at the UCLA Health Jonsson Comprehensive Cancer Center found that MRI-guided stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) for prostate cancer ...
After a comprehensive two-year follow-up, researchers found that MRI-guided stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) for prostate cancer significantly reduced long-term side effects and improved quality ...
One radiation oncologist describes the advantages of MRI-guided SBRT when treating patients with prostate cancer. “Prostate cancer is very curable with radiation,” radiation oncologist Dr. Matthew ...
New research suggests that MRI with contrast may create nanoparticles that infiltrate your tissues. The research is preliminary, and more work needs to be done. Doctors stress that MRI with contrast ...
Biparametric MRI, which omits dynamic contrast-enhanced sequences, similarly detected clinically significant prostate cancer to multiparametric MRI. Biparametric MRI was also noninferior to ...
A new study reveals that GLP-1 drugs may affect medical scan results, though experts say findings are preliminary and more ...
