MRI use before a first prostate biopsy has risen sharply, yet about one-third of men still undergo the procedure without a scan. For a man facing a prostate biopsy, an MRI scan can give doctors a clearer idea of where to look for cancer before they collect tissue samples. That approach has become much more […]
More Men Are Getting MRI Before Prostate Biopsy, but a Major Gap Remains
MRI use before a first prostate biopsy has risen sharply, yet about one-third of men still undergo the procedure without a scan. For a man facing a prostate biopsy, an MRI scan can give doctors a clearer idea of where to look for cancer before they collect tissue samples. That approach has become much more […]
Researchers Discover What May Be Fueling One of the World’s Most Common Spine Disorders
Newly identified stem cells help explain ligament overgrowth in lumbar spinal stenosis, with mouse experiments pointing to calcium signaling as a possible treatment target. When ligaments in the lower back grow too thick, they can press on spinal nerves, causing pain, numbness, and difficulty walking. This narrowing of the spinal canal, called lumbar spinal stenosis, […]
Even After 300 Years, Scientists Find Recovering Grasslands Can Remain Fundamentally Different
Even centuries after disturbance, recovering grasslands can remain dominated by a different kind of plant than the old-growth ecosystems they replaced. Even after centuries of recovery, a grassland can still support a noticeably different plant community from an ancient landscape that was never plowed. A global analysis of 742 plant species found that secondary grasslands, […]
