Prostate MR
Gain expert insights and enhance your confidence in interpreting challenging Prostate MR cases.
ACR Education Center to transition from on-site training in 2026.
Course Overview
This 100-case, two-day course is designed to provide practicing radiologists with intense training in the interpretation of multiparametric prostate MRI (mpMRI) and the use of Prostate Imaging — Reporting and Data System version 2.1 (PI-RADS™ v2.1) for standardized communication of imaging findings.
Throughout this program, participants will develop their interpretative skills at individual workstations by review of prostate mpMRI cases with pathology correlation. A series of didactic lectures MR-guided prostate biopsy techniques will complement the training session with focus on imaging techniques optimization.
At the conclusion of this course, you will be able to:
- Apply the principles of PI-RADS v2.1 and the scoring system during the interpretation of mpMRI of the prostate.
- Report imaging findings using the standardized format.
- Optimize prostate imaging protocols using the mpMRI principles to achieve the best diagnostic performance.
- Provide guidance for targeted biopsies of the prostate.
- Develop multidisciplinary collaborations and establish a quality assurance program for prostate imaging.
