Can MRI diagnose penile cancer?

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) can indicate penile cancer, but can not make a final diagnosis.

Penile cancer refers to malignant tumors occurring in the penis. The diagnosis requires professional examinations, including histopathological examination, cytological examination, MRI examination, etc. Among them, MRI examination is a non-invasive, non-radiation examination method, which can clearly show the internal structure of the penis. It has high sensitivity and specificity for early detection of penile cancer. However, it should be noted that this examination alone does not make a diagnosis. The patient needs further pathological examination. If cancer cells are found in the diseased tissue, the diagnosis can be made.
