To evaluate the recommendations for multiparametric prostate MRI (mp-MRI) interpretation introduced in the recently updated Prostate Imaging Reporting and Data System version 2 (PI-RADSv2), and investigate the impact of pathologic tumour volume on prostate cancer (PCa) detectability on mpMRI.
This was an institutional review board (IRB)-approved, retrospective study of 150 PCa patients who underwent mp-MRI before prostatectomy; 169 tumours ≥0. 5-mL (any Gleason Score [GS]) and 37 tumours
PI-RADSv2 allowed correct identification of 118/125 (94 %; 95 %CI: 90-99 %) peripheral zone (PZ) and 42/44 (95 %; 95 %CI: 89-100 %) transition zone (TZ) tumours ≥0. 5 mL, but only 7/27 (26 %; 95 %CI: 10-42 %) PZ and 2/10 (20 %; 95 %CI: 0-52 %) TZ tumours with a GS ≥4+3, but
PI-RADSv2 correctly identified 94-95 % of PCa foci ≥0. 5 mL, but was limited for the assessment of GS ≥4+3 tumours ≤0. 5 mL. DCE-MRI offered limited added value to T2WI+DW-MRI.
• PI-RADSv2 correctly identified 95 % of PCa foci ≥0. 5 mL • PI-RADSv2 was limited for the assessment of GS ≥4+3 tumours ≤0. 5 mL • DCE-MRI offered limited added value to T2WI+DW-MRI.
