Prevalence of prostate cancer in PI-RADS version 2.1 T2-weighted transition zone 'nodule in nodule' and 'homogeneous mildly hypointense area between nodules' criteria: MRI-radical prostatectomy histopathological evaluation.

Objectives: To evaluate the prevalence of prostate cancer (PCa) of two PI-RADS version (v) 2.1 transition zone (TZ) features (PI-RADS 1 ['nodule in nodule'] and 2 ['homogeneous mildly hypointense area between nodules']).

Methods: With an institutional review board approval, from a 5-year cohort between 2012 and 2017, we retrospectively identified 53 consecutive men with radical prostatectomy (RP) confirmed TZ tumors and MRI.

When to biopsy Prostate Imaging and Data Reporting System version 2 (PI-RADSv2) assessment category 3 lesions? Use of clinical and imaging variables to predict cancer diagnosis at targeted biopsy.

Introduction: We aimed to determine if clinical and imaging features can stratify men at higher risk for clinically significant (CS, International Society of Urological Pathology [ISUP] grade group ≥2) prostate cancer (PCa) in equivocal Prostate Imaging and Data Reporting System (PI-RADS) category 3 lesions on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).

Methods: Approved by the institutional review board, this retrospective study involved 184 men with 198 lesions who underwent 3T-MRI and MRI-directed transrectal ultrasound biopsy for PI-RADS 3 lesions. Men were evaluated including clinical stage, prostate-specific antigen density (PSAD), indication, and MRI lesion size.

Prevalence of Prostate Cancer in PI-RADS Version 2.1 Transition Zone Atypical Nodules Upgraded by Abnormal DWI: Correlation With MRI-Directed TRUS-Guided Targeted Biopsy.

In PI-RADS version 2.1 (v2.1), atypical transition zone (TZ) nodules (homogeneous circumscribed nodules without full encapsulation) assigned category 2 can be upgraded to category 3 when showing markedly restricted diffusion.

Multidetector CT detection of peritoneal metastases: evaluation of sensitivity between standard 2.5 mm axial imaging and maximum-intensity-projection (MIP) reconstructions.

Objective: Our purpose was to evaluate the sensitivity of multidetector CT for the detection of peritoneal metastases between standard 2.5 mm axial imaging and maximum-intensity-projection (MIP) reconstructions.

Materials And Methods: The Institutional Review Board approved this retrospective study and waived the need to obtain patient consent.
