Objective: To compare the accuracy of the European Randomized Study of Screening for Prostate Cancer (ERSPC) RC, MRI-ERSPC-RC, and Prostate Biopsy Collaborative Group (PBCG) RC in patients undergoing transperineal prostate biopsy.
Patients And Methods: We identified 392 patients who underwent mpMRI before transperineal prostate biopsy across multiple public and private institutions between January 2017 and August 2019. The estimated probabilities of detecting PCa and significant PCa were calculated using the MRI-ERSPC-RC, ERSPC-RC, and PBCG-RC. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves for each calculator were generated and the area underneath the curve (AUC) was compared. Calibration and clinical utility were assessed with calibration plots and decision curve analysis, respectively.
Results: PCa was detected in 285 patients (72.7%) with significant PCa found in 200 patients (51.1%). ROC curve analysis found the MRI-ERSPC-RC outperformed the ERSPC-RC and PBCG-RC. For the prediction of PCa, the AUC was 0.756, 0.696, and 0.675 for the MRI-ERSPC-RC, ERSPC-RC, and PBCG-RC, respectively. The AUC for the prediction of significant PCa was 0.803, 0.745, and 0.746 for the MRI-ERSPC-RC, ERSPC-RC, and PBCG-RC, respectively.
Conclusions: Our study validated the ERSPC-RC, MRI-ERSPC-RC, and PBCG-RC in a cohort undergoing transperineal prostate biopsy with the MRI-ERSPC-RC performing the best. These RCs may enable improved shared decision making and help to guide patient selection for biopsy.

Objective: To compare the performance of the risk calculators of the European Randomized Study for Screening of Prostate Cancer (ERSPC) and the Prostate Biopsy Collaborative Group (PBCG) in predicting the risk of presenting clinically significant prostate cancer.
Material And Methods: Retrospectively, patients who underwent prostate biopsy at Sanatorio Allende Cerro, Ciudad de Córdoba, Argentina, were identified from January 2018 to December 2021. The probability of having prostate cancer was calculated with the two calculators separately and then the results were compared to establish which of the two performed better.

Objectives: To develop and validate a prostate cancer (PCa) risk calculator (RC) incorporating multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (mpMRI) and to compare its performance with that of the Prostate Biopsy Collaborative Group (PBCG) RC.
Patients And Methods: Men without a PCa diagnosis receiving mpMRI before biopsy in the Prospective Loyola University mpMRI (PLUM) Prostate Biopsy Cohort (2015-2020) were included. Data from a separate institution were used for external validation.

The study aimed to investigate the best-performing of three risk calculators (RCs) for the Turkish population in predicting cancer-free status and high-risk prostate cancer (PCa) in patients undergoing transrectal ultrasound-guided prostate biopsy. The electronic medical records of 527 patients who underwent prostate biopsy for the first time due to PSA of 0.3-50 ng/dl and/or cancer suspicion at digital rectal examination (DRE) between January 2017 and December 2020 were retrieved retrospectively.

Background: European Association of Urology (EAU) guidelines recommend using risk-calculators (RCs), imaging or additional biomarkers in asymptomatic men at risk of prostate cancer (PCa).
Objectives: To compare the performance of mpMRI, a RC we recently developed and two commonly used RC not including mpMRI in predicting the risk of PCa, as well as the added value of mpMRI to each RC.
Design Setting And Participants: Single-center retrospective study evaluating 221 biopsy-naïve patients who underwent prebiopsy mpMRI.
