Here is Mine NOT SURE WHAT TO MAKE OF IT__DOC APPT 7/9/25

MR PELVIS WITH AND WITHOUT CONTRAST
(PETMR PSMA)

Lesion 1:
Mid/apical anterior fibromuscular stroma; 2.7 x 2.2 x 1.2
cm; (Se/Im 6/108)
On T2-weighted MR imaging, the lesion is seen as a focus
of low signal intensity (T2 score = 5/5).
The lesion demonstrates marked restricted diffusion (DWI
score = 5/5). ADC value: 0.663 x 10^-3 mm^2/s
The lesion is associated with suspicious enhancement (DCE
positive).

No definite corresponding PSMA avidity.
Overall PI-RADS v2 score = 5
Capsular margin and neurovascular bundle: Lesion #1 is
associated with approximately 2 mm anterior extracapsular
extension (Se/Im 6/108).
Seminal vesicles: No evidence of seminal vesicle invasion.
Lymph nodes: No evidence of lymphadenopathy in the field
of view
Bones: No suspicious lesions
Whole Body MR: Additional, non-diagnostic MR images were
obtained for anatomic localization.
Brain: No large masses, hydrocephalus or extra-axial
fluid collections
Chest: No large pulmonary masses or pulmonary nodules.
Note, MRI is limited for assessment of pulmonary nodules.
If pulmonary nodules assessment is clinically warranted, a
CT chest is recommended.
Abdomen: Tiny bilateral renal cysts. Bilateral hydroceles,
left larger than right. Evaluation of the small and large
bowel is limited in the setting of PET/MRI due to
peristalsis and artifact from bowel gas.
IMPRESSION:
- PI-RADS v2 score 5: clinically significant cancer is
highly likely to be present.
- Lesion #1 is associated with macroscopic extracapsular
extension. No evidence of seminal vesicle invasion.
- MR T-stage = T3A
- No lymphadenopathy. No suspicious bone lesions.

I have posted my PSMA/MRI test results in previous posting which did not show anything, my Decipher was .017

“Lesion #1 is associated with macroscopic extracapsular extension”.

Is the real significant thing here? It means that the lesion has gotten out of the capsule into the surrounding tissue but has not spread to nearby body structures, Something that could occur who know when, nobody. That’s the T3A.

It looks like nothing else was really found, a good thing. It’s probably just the prostate and some surrounding tissues that needs to be removed.

Radiation would be perfectly appropriate for this condition. I know you have heart problems so that would probably make the most sense. I’m sure this is what your doctor told you as well. ADT alone is probably not going to be enough. You should be talking to a radiation oncologist about your treatment.
