Multiparametric MRI-Targeted TRUS Prostate Biopsies Using Visual Registration

Figure 1

Standardized mp-MRI target reporting. 69-year-old man enrolled into active surveillance without MRI, one year ago. First AS control with prebiopsy MRI shows a suspicious (4/5) image in the anterior horn of the right PZ. Transmission of this information to the urologist performing the TB is made using the recommended standardized 27-sector diagram, common to radiologists, urologists, and pathologists in the institution. It is simply pasted at the end of the traditional text report. A screenshot of the workstation, centred on the image, is also copy/pasted in the report and saved into the PACS system. This information is available at time of TRUS biopsies. TB confirmed the diagnosis with 1 out of 2 cores positive (5 mm; Gleason ). No SB was positive.
