Post-PI-RADS: Prostate MRI in the Post-Treatment Setting
Sunrise Session

ORGANIZERS: Daniel Margolis, Utaroh Motosugi

 
Wednesday, 15 May 2019
Room 516AB  07:00 - 08:00 Moderators:  Varaha Tammisetti, Leonardo Bittencourt

Skill Level: Basic to Advanced

Session Number: S-W-01

Overview
PI-RADS is designed for detection of primary significant cancer. Imaging in the post-treatment setting requires different assessment criteria, which have not been codified. Imaging of focal and diffuse treatments result in different appearance on various pulse sequences.

Target Audience
Body radiologists and physicists.

Educational Objectives
As a result of attending this course, participants should be able to:
- Develop protocols for prostate MRI in the post-treatment setting;
- Describe the differences in the appearance of focal vs. whole-gland treatment effects; and
- Recognize findings suspicious for residual or recurrent disease.

Whole-Gland Therapy: Radiation & Androgen Deprivation
Silvia Chang
The objectives of this session is to review protocols for prostate MRI in the post-treatment setting, describe the appearance of whole-gland treatment effects and recognize findings suspicious for residual or recurrent disease. Early detection of recurrence is important for treatment planning and prognosis. Detection in the post treatment cases can be challenging. Advances in mpMRI helps to differentiate recurrence from mimics. Familiarity with imaging appearances of recurrence and mimics helps to make a correct and timely diagnosis.
