The role of multiparametric MRI in detection of prostate cancer in patients with total serum prostate specific antigen levels of 4-10 ng/mL: a prospective cohort study

In patients with PSA levels of 4-10 ng/mL, it is difficult to distinguish prostate cancer (PCa) from prostatitis. So our study is to evaluate the role of multiparametric MRI (mp-MRI) in detection of PCa and prediction of PCa incidence in patients with total PSA levels of 4C10 ng/mL by a prospective cohort study. Mp-MRI showed excellent area under the ROC curve, suggesting obviously clinically relevant predictive characteristics. Furthermore, with 137 months of follow-up, higher score of mp-MRI was proved to be significantly associated with a greater risk of detection rate of PCa.
