Case ‒ Foamy high-grade prostatic intraepithelial neoplasia: A false positive for prostate cancer on multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging?

Abstract: The introduction of multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (mpMRI) of the prostate, and specifically the introduction of diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI), has significantly impacted the diagnosis of prostate cancer and the management of clinically localized prostate cancer. Indeed, its localizing ability has now opened up opportunities to target focal lesions in partial gland ablation therapy as a treatment option for localized prostate cancer. With negative predictive rates of mpMRI approaching 90% in cer… Show more

“…Namely, the major strength of mpMRI of the prostate is its high negative predictive value, between 90 and 93% [28]. However, the false positive rate is too high, up to 70% according to some research, which presents a problem [29][30][31].…”

“…Definitive diagnosis cannot be made based on one of these imaging techniques since morhphological and functional properties of cancer can overlap with benign conditions. Prostate mpMRI has high negative predictive value, but it also has too high false positive rate [20][21][22]. Therefore, we believe there is a need to increase specificity of the examination.…”
