Article Synopsis
- This study validated a risk model that integrates clinical and multiparametric MRI parameters to predict extraprostatic extension (EPE) of prostate cancer before radical prostatectomy.
- The research analyzed data from 205 patients across two German hospitals, using techniques like receiver operating characteristic analysis to assess the model's effectiveness against ESUR criteria.
- Results showed the risk model had strong predictive performance (AUC = 0.86) for EPE, similar to the ESUR classification (AUC = 0.87), although its applicability may be limited to populations with a high prevalence of EPE.
