Prostate Carcinoma | Diagnostic Test: Multiparametric Magnetic Resonance Imaging | Not Applicable |
PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To estimate the diagnostic performance as quantified by the area under the ROC curve to detect aggressive prostate cancer.
II. To develop a risk prediction model by incorporating overall PI-RADS, PSA, Gleason score and clinical stage to predict the presence of aggressive prostate cancer.
SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To evaluate the diagnostic performance of the individual PI-RADS score of each MRI parameter (T2W, DWI and DCE), as determined by local imaging review.
TERTIARY OBJECTIVES:
I. All clinical data including magnetic resonance (MR) images will be banked for future exploratory research aims.
OUTLINE:
Patients undergo mpMRI within 3 months prior to schedule surgery.
After completion of study, patients are followed up until radical prostatectomy pathology is reported and finalized.

- Diagnostic performance of overall prostate imaging reporting and data system (PI-RADS) score [ Time Frame: Up to 2 years ]Will estimate the diagnostic performance as quantified by the area under the ROC curve.
- Risk prediction model [ Time Frame: Up to 2 years ]To estimate the predictive performance of a model for predicting clinically significant prostate cancer on the basis of the overall PI-RADS, PSA, Gleason score and clinical stage.
- Diagnostic performance of the individual prostate imaging reporting and data system (PI-RADS) score [ Time Frame: Up to 2 years ]Will estimate the diagnostic performance as quantified by the area under the ROC curve.
