Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
The study is a non-randomized, prospective trial of men scheduled for radical prostatectomy for treatment of prostate cancer as standard of care and will undergo a series of pre-operative multi-modality imaging studies. Pre-operative imaging will be correlated with actual pathology results and statistical modeling performed to determine the most informative imaging biomarkers in predicting cancer location and aggressiveness (Gleason Score).

- description
- The study requires eligible patients to complete one imaging session at St. Joseph's Health Care to begin within 6 weeks of the scheduled Radical Prostatectomy. Imaging will consist of simultaneous multiparametric MRI (mpMRI), sodium MRI and positron emission tomography (PET) with a radio-labeled probe for prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA).

- description
- We will evaluate the ability of simultaneous multiparametric MRI (mpMRI), sodium MRI and positron emission tomography (PET) with a radio-labeled probe for prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) to accurately predict the actual cancer distribution found in the whole mount prostatectomy specimens obtained from the surgery. A variety of statistical methods will be utilized to build predictive models based on the extracted features and to identify a final model that will be used as the predictive tool (i.e. the imaging assay). We will quantify the ability of these models to enhance clinical lesion identification.
