The Diagnostic Performance of Multiparametric Magnetic Resonance Imaging to Detect Significant Prostate Cancer

Abstract: In men with an abnormal prostate specific antigen/digital rectal examination, multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging detected significant prostate cancer with an excellent negative predictive value and moderate positive predictive value. The use of multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging to diagnose significant prostate cancer may result in a substantial number of unnecessary biopsies while missing a minimum of significant prostate cancers.

“…The median number of taken cores in our cohort was 18 in comPbx, 12 in sysPbx and 6 in fusPbx. Other study groups perform fusPbx in combination with volumebased systematic template biopsy, which results in a median number of 20-30 systematic cores, while the detection rate of all and significant PCa was comparable to our detection rates in sysPbx [24][25][26].…”

“…This has been supported by other studies with one recent study showing that only 4% of clinically significant disease would have been missed with a target alone strategy 16 . Other authors have also demonstrated negative predictive values of 90% or higher [17][18][19] . Third, consensus is lacking regarding the definition of clinically significant cancer.…”

“…Although the prostate cancer is usually not the direct cause of death, the differentiation of clinically significant prostate cancer lesions from those low-grade lesions is critical 1 . The use of multiparametric MRI (mpMRI) with Prostate Imaging Reporting And Data System (PI-RADS) has increased the sensitivity in prostate cancer detection, but the specificity is still poor which may lead to unnecessary biopsies 4,5 . The accuracy of mpMRI with PI-RADS is also largely dependent on the experience of the radiologist 5 .…”
