Standardized Magnetic Resonance Imaging Reporting Using the Prostate Cancer Radiological Estimation of Change in Sequential Evaluation Criteria and Magnetic Resonance Imaging/Transrectal Ultrasound Fusion with Transperineal Saturation Biopsy to Select Men on Active Surveillance

Abstract: Background: Contemporary selection criteria for men with prostate cancer (PC) suitable for active surveillance (AS) are unsatisfactory, leading to high disqualification rates based on tumour misclassification. Conventional biopsy protocols are based on standard 12-core-TRUS-biopsy. Objective: We assessed the value of MRI-/TRUS-fusion-biopsy over a 4-year followup in men on AS for low-risk PC. Design, Setting and Participants: Between 2010 and 2018, a total of 273 men were included. 157 men with initial 12-core… Show more

“…This variation in AS practice has been reflected in a recent consensus statement by the Prostate Cancer UK Expert Reference Group on AS, which reported significant variation in contemporary international guidelines, and in international and British practice [24]. There have been previous attempts, such as the PRECISE recommendation, to standardise mp-MRI reporting during AS based on consensus opinions [25][26][27][28]. However, the findings in this review would suggest up-take of these standards to be limited.…”

“…With the recently developed Prostate Cancer Radiological Estimation of Change in Sequential Evaluation (PRECISE) scoring system including only subjective criteria for the assessment of radiological progression of the disease 73 , 74 , the use of delta-radiomics in follow-up mpMRI scans could complement the developed baseline predictive model by acting as a quantitative tool for dynamic re-evaluation of the risk of PCa progression, further increasing confidence in mpMRI as an alternative to repeat biopsies. In this study, we already used PRECISE 5 as an alternative to histopathological progression of the disease, which aligns with the global trend towards heavier reliance on MRI in navigating follow-up in AS and makes the results more applicable to the routine clinical practice where the two surrogates are used interchangeably 52 , 75 77 .…”

“…At UCL, three different scanners were used: two 1.5-T (Symphony or Avanto, Siemens) and one 3-T system (Achieva, Philips), with a pelvic phased-array coil. At La Sapienza, all exams were performed on a 3-T scanner (Discovery MR750, GE Healthcare) using a 32-multichannel surface phased-array body coil, but in some of the earlier scans, an endorectal coil was also used UCL University College London study by Dieffenbacher and colleagues [8] reports that patients with a PRECISE score ≥ 3 on follow-up should be rebiopsied. Moreover, the concept of 'radiological progression' is not well-defined, as there are yet no volume or diameter thresholds that allow us to reliably distinguish between expected interscan variability (which can be considerable [21]) and true progression.…”
