>>The 3T mp MRI should be the first tool used for serious diagnosis since, if nothing is detected, it is completely uninvasive (i.e. no biopsy is necessary)

I honestly do not believe anyone in my state (AR) is doing them. Which strikes me as totally unbelievable. I've had a rise in PSA to 5, and the MRI makes more sense to me than anything. But I can't find anyplace that does them.

Thinking about going to a bigger state to get it done. It does not make sense to me to have them slicing up my prostate when just taking a picture should do. Or might do.
