PROSTATE MRI:
Advanced Visualization with Multi-parametric MRI of the Prostate
UMI proudly sponsors
Due to the advances in 3T MRI, UMI can perform non-invasive high resolution imaging of the prostate without the need for placement of an endo-rectal coil. This makes the imaging procedure much more comfortable for the patient while providing the necessary signal to noise ratio required for fine detail prostate imaging. Using a combination of a dynamic contrast injection and specialized post processing software, UMI can perform real multi-parametric imaging of the prostate.
Candidates for prostate MRI are patients with an abnormal digital rectal exam, elevated PSA and/or negative biopsies, patients with known prostate cancer and or post prostatectomy to rule out recurrence.
UMI is the primary sponsor for the Distinguished Gentlemans Ride in Rochester NY to promote prostate cancer awareness month and men’s health Sunday September 30th. UMI’s practice administrator Michael J Lechner will be one of the riders participating in the event and is helping raise donations for the charity. Please support his efforts and click on the pic below and consider contributing a donation to sponsor him for the ride.
Prostate MRI
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the prostate uses a powerful magnetic field, radio waves and a computer to produce detailed pictures of the structures within a man’s prostate gland.
