Value of MRI texture analysis for predicting high-grade prostate cancer

Purpose To explore the potential value of MRI texture analysis (TA) combined with prostate-related biomarkers to predict high-grade prostate cancer (HGPCa). Materials and methods Eighty-five patients who underwent MRI scanning, including T2-weighted imaging (T2WI) and diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) prior to trans-rectal ultrasound (TRUS)-guided core prostate biopsy, were retrospectively enrolled. TA parameters derived from T2WI and DWI,...
