This study aims to evaluate the performances of linear
and quadratic discriminant analysis and linear and
non-linear support vector machine (SVM) for estimation
of final Gleason score preoperatively for prostate
cancer. The digital rectal examination (DRE) findings,
age, prostate specific antigen (PSA) level, index lesion
size, biopsy Gleason score, ADC, Likert scales of T2,
diffusion weighted, and dynamic contrast enhanced (DCE)
MRI were used as predictors for estimating the final
Gleason score based on the pathologic analysis after
prostatectomy. The results of our study indicated that
linear SVM and linear discriminant analysis performed
well in predicting final Gleason score.
