Abstract:
PURPOSE:To evaluate if size-based cut-offs based on MR imaging can successfully assess clinically significant prostate cancer (csPCA). The goal was to improve the currently applied size-based differentiation criterion in PI-RADS. METHODS AND MATERIALS:MRIs of 293 patients who had undergone 3 T MR imaging with subsequent confirmation of prostate cancer on systematic and targeted MRI/TRUS-fusion biopsy were re-read by three radiologists. All identifiable tumors were measured on T2WI for lesions originating in the transition zone (TZ) and on DWI for lesions from the peripheral zone (PZ) and tabulated against their Gleason grade. RESULTS:309 lesions were analyzed, 213 (68.9 %) in the PZ and 96 (31.1 %) in the TZ. ROC-Analysis showed a stronger correlation between lesion size and clinically significant (defined as Gleason Grade Group ≥ 2) prostate cancer (PCa) for the PZ (AUC = 0.73) compared to the TZ (AUC = 0.63). The calculated Youden index resulted in size cut-offs of 14 mm for PZ and 21 mm for TZ tumors. CONCLUSION:Size cut-offs can be used to stratify prostate cancer with different optimal size thresholds in the peripheral zone and transition zone. There was a clearer separation of clinically significant tumors in peripheral zone cancers compared to transition zone cancers. Future iterations of PI-RADS could therefore take different size-based cut-offs for peripheral zone and transition zone cancers into account.
