* Histologically proven Gleason Grade Group 1 or 2 adenocarcinoma of the prostate
* Last prostate cancer containing biopsy performed within 3-15 months (mo.) prior to screening. Biopsy must have been \>= 10 core biopsy and informed by prior mpMRI
* Prostate cancer categorized as low risk or favorable risk by National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) criteria (low risk is defined as T1c-T2a, prostate-specific antigen \[PSA\] \< 10ng/ml, Gleason Grade Group 1 \[Gleason 3+3=6\] disease) and favorable intermediate risk as having no more than one of the following intermediate risk features, clinical T2b-T2c disease, PSA 10-20ng/ml, Gleason Grade Group 2 \[Gleason score 3+4=7\])
* Decipher genomic classifier score from prior biopsy \>= 0.45
* Institutional Review Board (IRB)-/Independent Ethics Committee (IEC)-approved written informed consent and privacy language as per national regulations must be obtained from the subject or legally authorized representative prior to any study-related procedures
* Concurrent diseases and malignancies are permitted
* Patients must have the ability to understand and the willingness to sign a written informed consent prior to registration on the study
* Willing to undergo prostate biopsy prior to non-surgical treatment of prostate cancer and within 90 days of PET-MRI imaging

Exclusion Criteria:

* Prior radiotherapy, surgery, chemotherapy, or hormonal therapy for prostate cancer
* NCCN very low risk category (T1c and Gleason Grade Group 1 \[Gleason score 3+3=6\], PSA \< 10 ng/mL, fewer than 3 prostate biopsy cores positive, =\< 50% cancer in any core, PSA density \< 0.15 ng/mL/g)
* Decipher score \< 0.45
* Prior bladder outlet procedure (i.e,. holmium laser enucleation of the prostate \[HoLEP\], transurethral resection of the prostate \[TURP\], Urolift, Rezum)
* Prohibited medications: use of 5 alpha reductase inhibitor or androgen deprivation therapy (i.e., leuprolide, relugolix) within 1 month of screening
* Contra-indication or relative contra-indication to MRI (i.e., pacemaker)
* History of hip replacement
* Subject has received investigational therapy within 28 days or 5 half-lives, whichever is longer, prior to screening

About the study

This clinical trial evaluates whether positron emission tomography-magnetic resonance imaging (PET-MRI) using the radioactive drug radiohybrid prostate-specific membrane antigen (rhPSMA)-7.3 may help in detecting higher grade or stage disease in men with low and favorable intermediate risk prostate cancer who are candidates for active surveillance. A PET scan is a test that uses a radioactive drug and a computer to create images of how organs and tissues in the body are functioning. The radioactive drug used in this study, rhPSMA-7.3, attaches to the abnormal cells in the body at a different rate than normal cells which allows the scanner to create a detailed picture of how the body is working. An MRI scan uses strong magnets and computers to create detailed images of the soft tissue in your body. A multiparametric (mp)MRI is a type of MRI scan that creates a more detailed picture of the prostate gland. Using rhPSMA-73 with PET-MRI and mpMRI may be more effective in detecting higher grade or stage disease in men with low and favorable intermediate risk prostate cancer.
