A comprehensive comparison between mpMRI of the prostate, MR-US fusion biopsy and whole mount histopathology.

Objectives: To compare multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (mpMRI) findings, US-MR fusion prostate biopsy results and whole-mount thin-section histopathology after radical prostatectomy.

Patients And Methods: Overall 259 patients, who had undergone mpMRI with lesions reported as PI-RADS 3-5, underwent a MR-US fusion biopsy between 2018 and 2020. Overall 186 biopsies yielded prostate cancer and 104 patients subsequently underwent endoscopic extraperitoneal radical prostatectomy.
