Multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (mpMRI) is a special type of scan that combines several different imaging techniques to create detailed pictures of your prostate. An mpMRI is about personalizing prostate cancer screening. It helps zero in on clinically significant tumors and gives more peace of mind when results are normal.
Thank you Dr. Holden for your insightful articles on prostrate cancer. Have you heard of the 4Kscore test? I have written about this test here:

Unfortunately, it is not available in all regions here in the US. It has a much higher specificity compared to PSA alone.
Hi Ram. Yes, I discuss it here https://open.substack.com/pub/keithrholdenmd/p/liquid-biomarkers-guide-smarter-prostate
