Local Progression

Prostate cancer (PC) is the one of the most common and socially significant malignancies in men. Radiotherapy is currently one of the leading conservative special treatments for a localized and locally advanced PC. The frequency of biochemical recurrence after external beam radiotherapy (EBRT) is high. One of the main problems is a differentiation between local and systemic relapse of PC. Nevertheless, a local recurrence of PC after radiotherapy can occur without increasing PSA. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a highly informative imaging method, however, currently it is used mostly for the primary diagnosis and is not included into the recommendations for detecting recurrent prostate cancer after treatment. MR-pattern of the local progression after radical EBRT can be similar to that of primary PC. It is also difficult to diagnose local relapse of prostate cancer in some cases. Multiparametric MRI (mpMRI) has the greatest prospects in the diagnosis of local tumor recurrence in prostate cancer patients after radical external beam radiotherapy. The article provides an overview of domestic and foreign literature, in which we attempted to systematize current knowledge about the possibilities of the mpMRI in diagnosing local recurrence after radical EBRT and, based on the results of published studies, identify directions for further application of this approach.
