Men's healthDetected by MRI

Benign prostatic enlargement (prostatic hyperplasia)

A benign, non-cancerous enlargement of the prostate gland that becomes very common with age and can press on the urethra, leading to problems with urination. MRI assesses the size and structure of the prostate and can flag suspicious, possibly malignant areas that warrant further evaluation.

Early detection matters

Our comprehensive check-up screens for benign prostatic enlargement (prostatic hyperplasia) and hundreds of other conditions.

Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA)

A protein produced primarily by prostate cells, measured to screen for prostate abnormalities including cancer. While elevated levels (typically >4 ng/mL) may indicate prostate cancer, they can also result from benign conditions like prostate enlargement (BPH), inflammation (prostatitis), or recent ejaculation. PSA levels tend to naturally increase with age. In your health assessment, we cross reference PSA with MR images.
