The aim of this retrospective study was to determine a role for PIRADS V2 in conjunction with TRUSgBX to predict the presence of clinically significant prostate cancer (csPCa) in treatment naïve men with pathology-proven prostate cancer who underwent TRUSgBX, followed by 3T mp-MRI prostate, and subsequently underwent RP. Our findings suggest that adding PIRADS V2 assessment to TRUSgBX improves the prediction of final pathology for presence of indolent disease and csPCa, and may help alleviate the rate of upgrading at RP.
