Abstract:BackgroundPrebiopsy prostate‐specific antigen density (PSAD) is a well‐known predictor of clinically significant prostate cancer (csPCa). Since prostate‐specific antigen (PSA) and prostate volume (PV) increase normally with aging, PSAD thresholds may vary. The purpose of the study was to determine if PSAD was predictive of csPCa in different age strata.MethodsWe retrospectively reviewed our institutional database for patients who underwent multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) between January 2016 a… Show more
