Published: January 2024

Prostate magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is increasingly being used to diagnose and stage prostate cancer. The Prostate Imaging and Data Reporting System (PI-RADS) version 2.1 is a consensus-based reporting system that provides a standardized and reproducible method for interpreting prostate MRI. This primer provides an overview of the PI-RADS system, focusing on its current role in clinical interpretation. It discusses the appropriate use of PI-RADS and how it should be applied by radiologists in clinical practice to assign and report PI-RADS assessments. We also discuss the changes from prior versions and published validation studies on PI-RADS accuracy and reproducibility.
