MRI-Targeted Prostate Biopsy Introduces Grade Inflation and Overtreatment

2024-01-10

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Purpose</h4> The use of MRI-targeted biopsies has led to lower detection of Gleason Grade Group 1 (GG1) prostate cancer and increased detection of GG2 disease. Although this finding is generally attributed to improved sensitivity and specificity of MRI for aggressive cancers, it might also be explained by grade inflation. Our objective was to determine the likelihood of definitive treatment and risk of post-tr...
