Article Title: Imaging of prostate cancer
Abstract: Imaging modalities are rapidly evolving to provide improved evaluation of prostate cancer. Our understanding of imaging criteria and experience in image interpretation are also growing. In addition to the traditional roles of imaging in prostate cancer (ie, localization and staging), extensive research is being done on metabolic imaging to predict cancer aggressiveness. Future directions in prostate cancer imaging include more precise patient stratification for different management options and new methods for guidance and assessment of emerging local prostate cancer therapies. © 2006 Elsevier Inc.
