[QUOTE="OMI100, post: 85249, member: 71"] Appreciate your concern. The 3T-MP-MRI of the prostate (I think a fairly new procedure) did not show any areas of interest. At this point I can always get another (MRI) done if my PSA does not stabilize. As I understand it the standard biopsy is a "hit or miss" deal. If you have a 3T-MP-MRI that shows areas of concern, that is merged with the device that does the biopsy so that the DR can guide the needles to the areas of concern getting a much more accurate sample. At least that is how I understand it. There is also a "LIVE" method where the biopsy is done at the same time you are getting an MRI. Much more accurate than merging the MRI scan with the device later. I am keeping close ck on my PSA number, and if it skyrockets I will get more concerned and active. More to follow.... [/QUOTE]
