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.
