Impact of prostate imaging quality (PI-QUAL) score on the detection of clinically significant prostate cancer at biopsy

To investigate the impact of Prostate Imaging Quality (PI-QUAL) scores on the diagnostic performance of multiparametric MRI (mpMRI) in a targeted biopsy cohort. 300 patients who underwent both mpMRI and biopsy were included. PI-QUAL scores were retrospectively assigned by two radiologists in consens...

Zusammenfassung:To investigate the impact of Prostate Imaging Quality (PI-QUAL) scores on the diagnostic performance of multiparametric MRI (mpMRI) in a targeted biopsy cohort. 300 patients who underwent both mpMRI and biopsy were included. PI-QUAL scores were retrospectively assigned by two radiologists in consensus and were correlated to pre-biopsy PI-RADS scores and biopsy outcomes. Clinically significant prostate cancer (csPCa) was defined as ISUP grade ≥ 2. Image quality was optimal (PI-QUAL ≥ 4) in 249/300 (83%) and suboptimal (PI-QUAL
