Course description
Course outline
Background to prostate imaging
We go through the background of prostate imaging and how the images are acquired as well as important sequences
Scanning a multi-parametric prostate MRI
We go through the various sequences and scanning techniques that are appropriate to prostate imaging
Anatomy
We go through the anatomy related to the prostate gland such as the preferred zone, transitional zone etc
Scoring systems (PIRADS and Likert)
There are various scoring systems with regards to prostate imaging and we go through these during the lecture day
Staging
We go through prostate cancer staging based on
Imaging the post-treatment gland
Post surgery or post radiotherapy the prostate gland can have altered appearances which can affect the interpretation of the possibility of disease recurrence. The Study day aims to help candidates decipher post treatment prostate imaging
Assessing for re-occurrence
Post treatment imaging with regular follow-up is a very important step to undertake however the assessment of possible recurrence can be challenging. The Study day will aim to help candidates manage this expectation
Cystic and Soft Tissue Lesions
Cystic and soft tissue lesions are explained during this lecture and how to manage them based on the extensive experience gained from Stanmore
Next generation imaging techniques in Advanced Prostate Cancer
We go through various advances in prostate cancer imaging to keep everyone up-to-date
