Purpose: The purpose of the present study was to assess the diagnostic accuracy of the Vesical Imaging-Reporting and Data System (VI-RADS) scoring system in predicting muscle infiltration of bladder cancer (BC) on a pre-operative multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (mpMRI).
Methods: The prospective study enrolled patients with bladder lesions detected on a preliminary ultrasonography or cystoscopy. The patients underwent mpMRI on a 3T MRI scanner followed by surgery within 2 weeks. The tumours were assigned a VI-RADS score by 2 experienced abdominal radiologists. The VI-RADS score was compared with postoperative histopathological findings to confirm detrusor muscle infiltration. The diagnostic performance of VI-RADS for predicting muscle invasion was assessed by calculating sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value (PPV), negative predictive value (NPV) and accuracy.
Results: A total of 60 patients were included in the study with a male: female ratio of 4.4 : 1. Transurethral resection of bladder tumour (TURBT) was performed in 47 (78.4%) and radical cystectomy in 13 (21.6%) patients. 19 (31.7%) had non-muscle invasive invasive BC (NMIBCa) and 41 (68.3%) had muscle invasive BC (MIBCa) on histopathology. There was a significant association between VI-RADS score and its components with muscle invasion ( < 0.05). A VI-RADS score of ≥ 3 had a sensitivity of 97.56% (95% CI: 0.87-0.99%), specificity of 73.68% (95% CI: 0.49-0.91), positive predictive value of 88.9% (95% CI: 0.79-0.94), negative predictive value of 93.33% (95% CI: 0.66-0.99), and diagnostic accuracy of 90% (95% CI: 0.80-0.96) for prediction of muscle invasion.
Conclusion: VI-RADS scoring system pre-operatively predicts the likelihood of muscle invasion in BC with a satisfactory diagnostic performance, and it should be incorporated in the diagnostic work-up of BC patients.

Purpose: HER2 expression is crucial for the application of HER2-targeted antibody-drug conjugates. This study aims to construct a predictive model by integrating multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (mpMRI) based multimodal radiomics and the Vesical Imaging-Reporting and Data System (VI-RADS) score for noninvasive identification of HER2 status in bladder urothelial carcinoma (BUC).
Methods: A total of 197 patients were retrospectively enrolled and randomly divided into a training cohort (n = 145) and a testing cohort (n = 52).

Preoperative detection of muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC) remains a great challenge in practice. We aimed to develop and validate a deep Vesical Imaging Network (ViNet) model for the detection of MIBC using high-resolution Tweighted MR imaging (hrTWI) in a multicenter cohort. ViNet was designed using a modified 3D ResNet, in which, the encoder layers were pretrained using a self-supervised foundation model on over 40,000 cross-modal imaging datasets for transfer learning, and the classification modules were weakly supervised by an experiential knowledge-domain mask indicated by a nnUNet segmentation model.

Objective: This study investigates the diagnostic value of Vesical Imaging Reporting and Data System (VI-RADS) in biparametric MRI (bp-MRI) for the detection of muscular infiltration in bladder cancer, and to investigate whether apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) value can function as a potential indicator of bp-MRI VI-RADS for patient benefit.
Materials And Methods: This single-center retrospective study enrolled 81 patients with pathologically confirmed bladder cancer from October 2019 to November 2021. Two readers independently scored the T2-weighted images and diffusion-weighted images of each index lesion based on the VI-RADS criteria, subsequently deriving the bp-MRI VI-RADS scores.
