Prostate Cancer Screening Jacksonville, FL

Prostate cancer screening involves non-invasive imaging and testing to evaluate the health of the prostate gland. Our prostate MRI scan delivers high-resolution images that allow for:

• Early detection of prostate abnormalities
• Assessment of prostate size and structure
• Identification of potential cancerous lesions
• Monitoring of existing conditions

The unfortunate fact remains that one in nine men will be diagnosed with prostate cancer during their lifetime.

A prostate MRI is typically a diagnostic exam, but it has also shown to be effective as a non-invasive screening tool.

It is expected that annual prostate MRIs will soon be the gold standard screening tool for prostate cancer, like mammograms are for breast cancer.

Prostate MRI (magnetic resonance imaging) uses a strong magnet and radio waves to create a detailed image of the prostate to accurately identify cancer;

• Show how a tumor has changed, and
• Detect if cancer has spread to other parts of the body.
• Reveal other prostate issues, such as infections or benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH).

We are proud to be home to Florida’s first GE SIGNA™ Premier AIR™ 3T MRI scanner which provides higher quality images in significantly faster scan times. With this MRI, located at our Gate Parkway location, we can perform Prostate MRIs in only 15 minutes.
