Diagnostic capability of multiparametric MRI in patients with transrectal prostate biopsy

2016 
155 Background: The prostatic multiparametric MRI (mpMRI) is the combination of anatomical imaging and functional sequences. Nowadays this technique is still being researched due to its positive published results. The objective of this study is to show our experience in the application of the mpMRI in patients, prior to the TRUS-guided biopsy, and the sensitivity and specificity of its measured parameters and their combination. Methods: Prospective cohort. MpMRI was indicated to patients prior to the TRUS-Guided biopsy. Diffusion, PIRADS, DCE and T2 parameters were observed on the MRIs, and the presence of cancer and Gleason score on the biopsy. Logistic regression test was performed with a 95% confidence interval. We assigned different values, depending of the importance of each factor, applying binominal regression. Results: We registered 73 patients with mpMRI prior to the TRUS-Guided Biopsy, and their results. The cancer detection rate was 60.27% (44 patients). The T2 signal had a sensibility of 81.82...
