Abstract
Background: Prostate cancer is a significant health issue worldwide, but methods to screen for and diagnose this disease have significant inherent limitations. Some efforts to address these limitations have involved the use of ultrasound-based imaging methods.
Methods: This narrative review paper focuses on recent developments in the use of medical imaging, with a focus on ultrasound and related methods, to improve the diagnosis of prostate cancer. These methods include: elastography, contrast-enhanced ultrasound, targeted contrast agents, quantitative ultrasound, multiparametric ultrasound, micro-ultrasound, and photoacoustic imaging.
Results: This paper provides an update on clinically relevant imaging technologies which are in the technical and preclinical literature.
Conclusion: Novel methods and their performance are highlighted, including how they address limitations in current clinical care.
期刊介绍：
The Prostate is a peer-reviewed journal dedicated to original studies of this organ and the male accessory glands. It serves as an international medium for these studies, presenting comprehensive coverage of clinical, anatomic, embryologic, physiologic, endocrinologic, and biochemical studies.
