This study develops a new tool that estimates the risk map for prostate cancer using quantitative mpMRI metrics and investigates the feasibility of this tool in screening for PCa. Quantitative mpMRI parameters: ADC, T2 and DCE signal enchantment values were calculated and subsequently cancer presence was predicted based on estimated risk scores. The sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value and negative predictive value for PCa detection using a sector based analysis were 75.0%, 88.6%, 84.7% and 80.8% respectively. The area under the curve in ROC analysis was 0.818. Importantly, all the index lesions were identified by the risk map tool.
