Case description

Sanoj Punnen, MD, MAS, describes how recent trial based research has supported the synergistic qualities of MRI and biomarkers in the cancer detection process by reducing unnecessary biopsies by approximately 25%. He notes that more research is needed to declare an ideal procedure as well as what biomarkers are most efficient. Introducing MRI reading AI by the name Habitat Risk Scoring System, he highlights his own research which could alter how MRI’s are processed and increase NPV to 92% without the use of biopsy.
