It was a nice study, but hardly a "breakthrough." Here it is, btw:

jamanetwork.com/journals/ja...

Biparametric (T2 & DWI) MRI was proposed years ago as an alternative to mpMRI (T2, DWI, & DCE). Results have been previously published from Denmark, China, Austria, Korea, and others.

I think the shorter access time is a real advantage for the patient. As with mpMRIs, the real hindrance is availability of adequately trained radiologists.

Another game changing development. More treatment for those additional men diagnosed. I've heard that very large percentages of men over 60 have PCa. This will open up the possibilities of getting treated for those large numbers currently going untreated.

I prefer 14 javelins rammed up my a** and peeing blood.

in reply to monte1111

Would 15 javelins be the number where you preferred a different treatment?

Javelins in the a$$..that definitely originated in California.

It has to be an even number. (I was expecting 12.) I believe it was originally an Olympic sport, so let's see, yep: brought to you by the Greeks. Have the Greeks ever won an Olympic event?

There is a funny response but I'll let j-o-h-n respond first...he's the Emperor of Greek jokes.

I thought j-o-h-n was the King of Staten Island. Or was it Manhattan? Long Island? One of those islands? I've had a drink named after all of the islands. Are they all just a bunch of drunks? No wonder you can't understand them when they talk. Or when they type. J-o-h-n probably has a wooden dog that barks when the mailman delivers.

in reply to monte1111

j-o-h-n is not a fan of water so he lives in the Hills....I won't say which one because in addition to being Greek...He's paravoid or is it paranoid..those Greeks confuse me.

in reply to monte1111

To be honest, I thought this article was about the first person to pass the Dental Licensing Boards in Britain.

J-o-h-n is a paranoid cellar dweller? If you find a wooden horse in your front yard, don't take it into your house! If you get a gift in the mail, don't open it! Above all, do not go to the dentist!

Very nice. Wish I hadn't used those Frank Sinatra records as frisbees. Probably worth a fortune now. Who knew? I have a Greek Army spear .... dropped once.

Greeks use dishes for frisbees. Those weren't spears they dropped it was their dishes....OPA!!!

Spears, dishes, drawers. The Greeks are known for dropping a lot of things.

Why call XPO1 names? I think he lives right down the street from you. Don't you live in the Hills, Hillj-o-h-n?
