Gadopiclenol in Contrast Enhanced MRI of the Prostate

Overview

The fundamental aim of this study is to show that the novel contrast agent Gadopiclenol (Elucirem), with its high relaxivity, facilitates increased contrast enhancement and improved differentiation of clinically significant prostate cancer on Prostate MRI, as categorized by the PI-RADS v2 classification categories.

Gadolinium based contrast agents with higher relaxivity have been shown to improve contrast enhancement and differentiation of tissues with increased blood perfusion or with higher microvascular density (MVD), and therefore increase visibility of cancerous tissue. In this study, the objective is to demonstrate that Gadopiclenol facilitates the detection and classification of clinically significant prostate cancer, compared to T2-W (T2 weighted image) and diffusion weighted imaging (DWI), using the detailed location-specific (individual biopsy core for each annotated target) results of subsequently performed MRI-US fusion biopsies.
