Prostate cancer is the most common cancer in men after lung cancer. It can appear in many forms and develop at different rates.

Multiparametric MRI of the prostate has been established as a very important method for the accurate diagnosis of various forms of prostate cancer and the proper management for patients. It is a method that accurately identifies neoplasm and helps significantly in the planning of treatment. In many cases, it can lead to the avoidance of biopsy, but also in cases where biopsy is required, if a CT scan has been done beforehand, it is done in a specific area, and random samples are not taken from the whole gland, thus making the whole procedure safer and more effective.

It is a painless examination performed on modern MRI scanners, with the patient in a supine position, lasts about 25-30 minutes and focuses exclusively on the imaging of the prostate gland. The method combines special functional magnetic resonance techniques with high-resolution anatomical images and provides both anatomical and functional information about the gland.
