It is paramount that urologists understand the basic fundamentals of prostate imaging and targeted biopsy techniques.

During the course, physicians will have the opportunity to ask questions and obtain tips and tricks from some of the international leaders in the field who have helped implement multi‐parametric imaging of the prostate.

We will review the basics of MR imaging, interpretation, and imaging pitfalls. We will provide hands on interaction which will include guided case review, practice cases with reviewer feedback explanation on imaging tips and tricks to help optimize MRI results.
