“…Conversely, most patients with a PI-RADSv2 score ≤3, should be considered eligible for continued active surveillance, obviating the need for a repeat, confirmatory biopsy with its associated risks. Our results are also concordant with recent literature, where PI-RADSv2 approach has been shown to improve the diagnostic accuracy to detect PCA and standardize the interpretation of mpMRI [33; 34]. Our study has several limitations.…”

“…The high sensitivity and very low specificity of PI-RADS-v2 across the three methods in Table 3 suggests that this tool is good to identify csPC in a selected population of patients with known PCa, as a negative test will be useful to rule out csPC, but it should not be used as a confirmatory test. This contrasts with a recent study where PI-RADS-v2 was found to have a sensitivity and specificity of over 80% for detection csPC [30]. The difference in performance characteristics may be explained by their use of a PI-RADS-v2 score of 3 (“the presence of clinically significant cancer is equivocal”) as a cutoff point for detection of csPC, whereas we used a score of 4 (“clinically significant cancer is likely to be present”) as a cutoff.…”

“…Our results are concordant with previous studies on PIRADSv2, and our testing is more representative than these studies of evaluating prostate mpMRI in the clinical setting. Zhao et al found a sensitivity and specificity over 80% for two readers, but was limited as TRUS‐guided biopsy alone was used as the reference standard, where we used prostatectomy as a standard. Vargas et al evaluated a “best achievable” performance of PIRADSv2 by identifying high‐grade lesions on whole‐mount prostatectomy specimens and scoring the correlated mpMRI lesions with PIRADSv2.…”
