Led PROMIS, the trial that showed MRI can safely spare a quarter of men from prostate biopsy.
Hashim Ahmed (Imperial College London) was chief investigator of PROMIS, which showed multiparametric MRI has far higher sensitivity for clinically significant prostate cancer than TRUS biopsy and could allow 27% of men to avoid biopsy altogether. He leads focal therapy trials of HIFU and cryotherapy and the PART and CHRONOS studies comparing focal and radical treatment.
