Session

The 2017 meeting of the ESUI addresses the hottest topic in urological imaging, that of prostate cancer imaging. The aim of the session is to provide an extensive and critical overview on the evolutions and developments in the different imaging tools available, such as multiparametric MRI and ultrasound-based imaging techniques. Important and essential issues such as standardisation and quality control as well as practical problems will be addressed. Moreover, current controversies will be explored and debated in point and counterpoint sessions followed by interactive discussions. Detailed knowledge of the performance and limitations of new imaging technologies seems mandatory when using them effectively and beneficially in clinical practice. At the end, the EAU prostate cancer guidelines will give their point of view on how imaging can be integrated into clinical practice without over stressing limited resources.
During the session, the prize giving ceremony for the 2017 ESUI vision award will be held, followed by the presentation of the awarded study. The aim of the ESUI Vision Award is to highlight the most innovative imaging study published during the last year in urology.
