From an economic perspective, first-line prostate-specific antigen (PSA) testing is favored over biparametric magnetic resonance imaging (bpMRI) for prostate cancer screening, mainly due to false-positive results and overdiagnosis, according to a study published online June 4 in the Annals of Internal Medicine.
Study finds first-line biparametric MRI less cost-effective than PSA for prostate cancer screening retrieved 4 June 2024 from https://medicalxpress.com/news/2024-06-line-biparametric-mri-effective-psa.html
