Dr. stanley has a male patient who is complaining of issues with urination. sometimes he has pain with urination, and he frequently has trouble starting and stopping his urine flow. dr. stanley decides he wants his patient to have an mri, which is an image of the interior of the body. what area would dr. stanley most likely want to examine?

The doctor probably wants to examine your patient's prostate size.

Explanation:

The patient shown in the question above is showing signs of enlarged prostate. That is why the doctor is likely to have an MRI scan to examine the size of the prostate.

An enlarged prostate means that this gland has grown. Prostate enlargement happens in almost all men as they get older. As the gland grows, it presses on the urethra and causes problems with urination and the bladder as well.

Natural prostate growth occurs in most men as they age. In many of them, the growth is so much that it begins to block the passage of urine through the urethra. Another hypothesis raised by doctors for prostate growth is the changes in the balance of sex hormones that happen in men over the years.
