Diagnostic value of prostate magnetic resonance imaging in men with prostate-specific antigen levels ≥ 15 ng/mL for biopsy decision-making
MpMRI demonstrated high diagnostic accuracy in men with PSA values of ≥ 15 ng/mL. MpMRI enables the reliable exclusion of csPC in cases with non-suspicious MRI findings in these patients. In patients with significantly elevated PSA levels, mpMRI provides an effective risk stratification to avoid unnecessary biopsies.
