Prostate Imaging for Local Recurrence Reporting and Data System for Biparametric Magnetic Resonance Imaging: A Proposal Open
We investigated a novel dedicated Prostate Imaging for Local Recurrence Reporting and Data System (PI-RRADS) in biochemical recurrence after radiotherapy (RT) and rad- ical prostatectomy (RP) evaluating biparametric magnetic resonance imag…

Lesion Volume in a Bi- or Multivariate Prediction Model for the Management of PI-RADS v2.1 Score 3 Category Lesions Open
0.5 mL lesion volume cutoff value significantly discriminates fusion-targeted biopsy need in PI-RADS v2.1 score 3 lesions and its diagnostic accuracy improves when it combines with prostate volume and age in a multivariate model.

Oligometastatic Prostate Cancer: Is there a Role for Surgery? A Narrative Review Open
Oligometastatic prostate cancer is commonly considered a transition between high metastatic and local- ized disease and includes a large spectrum of conditions with a polymorphic clinical behavior. The current management of these patients …

MRI apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC): A biomarker for prostate cancer after radiation therapy Open
Prostate specific antigen (PSA) remains the most used test to assess the response after therapies including the radiation therapy (RT). Apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) derived from the conventional diffusionweighted imaging (DWI), as …

Simplified PI-RADS (S-PI-RADS) for biparametric MRI to detect and manage prostate cancer: What urologists need to know Open
Biparametric magnetic resonance imaging (bpMRI) of the prostate has emerged as an alternative to multiparametric MRI (mpMRI) for the detection of clinically significant prostate cancer (csPCa). However, while the Prostate Imaging Reporting…

Risk stratification system for biparametric prostate magnetic resonance imaging Open
We have read with great interest and appreciate the article by Jambor and colleagues published in the June 2019 issue of PLoS Med (1).
View article: Prostate MRI and transperineal TRUS/MRI fusion biopsy for prostate cancer detection: clinical practice updates
Prostate MRI and transperineal TRUS/MRI fusion biopsy for prostate cancer detection: clinical practice updates Open
This narrative review summarizes the current knowledge about multiparametric and biparametric magnetic resonance imaging of the prostate. This is provided from both a radiological and a urological point of view analyzing the technical aspe…

Biparametric MRI and 41 sector map for MRI/Transrectal ultrasound fusion biopsy to increase diagnostic accuracy of prostate cancer Open
Optimizing the number of prostate biopsy (PB) cores in the initial diagnosis of prostate cancer is still an open question. Increasing the number of cores can expectedly lead to a higher cancer detection rate but more frequent, and greater …
