VI-RADS Articles

To determine the clinical, pathological, and radiological features, including the Vesical Imaging-Reporting and Data System (VI-RADS) score, independently correlating with muscle-invasive bladder cancer (BCa), in a multicentric national setting.

To compare the image quality of the reduced field-of-view (rFOV) diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) with the full field-of-view (fFOV) DWI in the assessment of bladder cancer (BC); and to explore the possible superiority of bi-planar (axial and sagittal) rFOV DWI over single planar fFOV DWI in predicting muscle-invasiveness of BC.

To (1) compare bladder cancer (BC) muscle invasiveness among three b-values using a contrast-free approach based on Vesical Imaging-Reporting and Data System (VI-RADS), to (2) determine if muscle-invasiveness assessment is affected by the reader experience, and to (3) compare BC conspicuity among three b-values, qualitatively and quantitatively.

The primary aim was to determine the performance of neoadjuvant chemotherapy VI-RADS (nacVI-RADS) in predicting response to systemic therapy in patients with MIBC and to evaluate its inter-reader agreement.

The aim of this study was to assess the prevalence of peritumoral enhancement (PTE) in patients with muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC) and non-MIBC (NMIBC) and to propose a modified diagnostic criterion for Vesical Imaging Reporting and Data System (VI-RADS) that incorporates PTE.

To evaluate the diagnostic agreement between readers in VI-RADS interpretation to detect muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC) preoperatively, we conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis of the available data.

Bladder cancer (BCa) diagnosis relies on distinguishing muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC) from non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) forms. Transurethral resection of the bladder tumor (TURBT) is a standard procedure for initial staging and treatment.

T2-weighted imaging (T2WI) is an essential sequence for assessing the staging of bladder cancer. This study aimed to compare the image quality and diagnostic performance of three-dimensional (3D) and two-dimensional (2D) T2WI in diagnosing muscle invasion of bladder cancer using Vesical Imaging Reporting and Data System (VI-RADS).

The Vesical Imaging-Reporting and Data System (VI-RADS) has been introduced to provide preoperative bladder cancer staging and has proved to be reliable in assessing the presence of muscle invasion in the pre-TURBT (trans-urethral resection of bladder tumor).

To evaluate the role of the Vesical Imaging-Reporting and Data System (VI-RADS) score in the diagnostic pathway of bladder cancer.

A systemic search of the contemporary literature was performed in December 2019 using the Medical Literature Analysis and Retrieval System Online (MEDLINE), the Excerpta Medica dataBASE (EMBASE), and Web of Science databases focussing on all available articles on VI-RADS.

The Vesical Imaging-Reporting and Data System (VI-RADS) criteria are expanding, providing fine differentiation of bladder wall layers involvement. We aimed to explore the feasibility of a novel categorical scoring, the Neoadjuvant chemotherapy VI-RADS (nacVI-RADS) for radiologic assessment of response (RaR), to define the spectrum of treatment response among patients with muscle invasive bladder cancer (MIBC).
