Research Projects Planned for 2008-2010
Overall Objectives:
1) To establish an International Prostate MRI Working Group that will accomplish the following goals:
- Expedite testing of MRI/MRS, currently considered the most promising clinical imaging technology for prostate cancer, for diagnosis and assessment of treatment and
- Develop near- and long-term research strategy for facilitated advancement of MRI/MRS. This will include development of technical specifications, standards and quality control for clinical testing.
2) To continue expansion of a multi-disciplinary ongoing consortium/Brain Trust on Molecular Imaging of Prostate Cancer for strategic planning to stimulate novel ideas and to expedite fundamental discovery, feasibility studies and technologic innovation.
