Modern Approach in Radiological Diagnosis of Prostate Cancer (Systematic Review of International Clinical Guidelines and Clinical Studies Over 2014–2020)

An increase in the level of prostate-specific antigen requires additional examination of the patient in order not to subject him to unnecessary treatment in case of clinically insignificant prostate cancer and, conversely, to carry out the necessary volume of measures in case of clinically significant prostate cancer. The paper presents the modern solutions for effective usage of diagnostic methods in visualization of clinically significant prostate cancer. To assess the advantages and disadvantages of various methods for diagnosing prostate cancer a search of publications for 2014–2020 period was conducted based on the Scopus, Web of Science, PubMed databases. The request included keywords: prostate cancer, multiparametric MRI, multiparametric ultrasound, PSMA PET/CT. We selected 27 articles. The review includes guidelines from the European Association of Urology, the American Urological Society, the American College of Radiology, and one practice recommendation.
