Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • To compare the yield of detecting metastatic prostate cancer tissue using MRI-guided bone marrow needle biopsies to that of historical controls obtained through unguided biopsies.

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • To evaluate the sensitivity of radiographic bone marrow changes detected by MRI for prostate cancer, as determined by the pathologic findings from bone marrow biopsy.
