Abstract
Prostate cancer is second leading cause of death from malignancy after lung cancer in American men. The primary goal during pretreatment evaluation of prostate cancer is disease detection, localization, establishing disease extent (both local and distant), and evaluating aggressiveness, which are the driving factors of patient outcomes such as recurrence and survival. Prostate cancer is typically diagnosed after the recognizing elevated serum prostate-specific antigen level or abnormal digital rectal examination. Tissue diagnosis is obtained by transrectal ultrasound-guided biopsy or MRI-targeted biopsy, commonly with multiparametric MRI without or with intravenous contrast, which has recently been established as standard of care for detecting, localizing, and assessing local extent of prostate cancer. Although bone scintigraphy and CT are still typically used to detect bone and nodal metastases in patients with intermediate- or high-risk prostate cancer, novel advanced imaging modalities including prostatespecific membrane antigen PET/CT and whole-body MRI are being more frequently utilized for this purpose with improved detection rates. The ACR Appropriateness Criteria are evidence-based guidelines for specific clinical conditions that are reviewed annually by a multidisciplinary expert panel. The guideline development and revision include an extensive analysis of current medical literature from peer reviewed journals and the application of well-established methodologies (RAND/UCLA Appropriateness Method and Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development, and Evaluation or GRADE) to rate the appropriateness of imaging and treatment procedures for specific clinical scenarios. In those instances where evidence is lacking or equivocal, expert opinion may supplement the available evidence to recommend imaging or treatment.

Quant Imaging Med Surg 2022; 12:3569-3579. [PMID: 35782253 PMCID: PMC9246736 DOI: 10.21037/qims-21-932] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/18/2021] [Accepted: 03/28/2022] [Indexed: 10/16/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has advantages in the diagnosis of prostate diseases, but there is also overdiagnosis. We compensate for this with fusion imaging and elastography. In this study, we want to evaluate Elastographic Q-analysis score (EQS) combined with Prostate Imaging Reporting and Data System (PI-RADS), based on transrectal ultrasound (TRUS)/multi-parameter magnetic resonance imaging (MP-MRI) fusion biopsy in differentiating benign and malignant prostate lesions. METHODS A total of 296 patients with 318 prostate lesions who underwent TRUS/MP-MRI fusion biopsy between October 2017 and October 2019 were retrospectively analysed. The performance of the EQS was evaluated on the sites of the suspicious areas of MP-MRI. The cut-off value of EQS was obtained according to receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve, which was used to upgrade and downgrade the PI-RADS scores. The area under the curve (AUC), integrated discrimination improvement, and decision curve analysis were used to assess the new PI-RADS performance. RESULTS In total, 318 MP-MRI suspicious prostate lesions (94 malignant vs. 224 benign lesions). The EQS optimal threshold was 1.85, and the AUC was 0.816. All cases were constructed three models by using 1.85 as the cut-off value: upgrade-PI-RADS, downgrade-PI-RADS and complex-PI-RADS. The AUC of PI-RADS, upgrade-PI-RADS, downgrade-PI-RADS and complex-PI-RADS were 0.869, 0.867, 0.872 and 0.873 respectively. The diagnostic coincidence rate of PI-RADS was increased from 0.667 to 0.874 by using strain elastography, among which the diagnostic rate of prostate cancer was increased from 0.557 to 0.806, and the diagnostic rate of non-prostate cancer was increased from 0.775 to 0.967. The integrated discrimination improvement indicated that downgrade-PI-RADS had a better diagnostic capability (P<0.05). The net benefit of all models, which downgrade-PI-RADS can maximize the net benefit value of patients by decision curve analysis. CONCLUSIONS The combination of PI-RADS and EQS with TRUS/MP-MRI fusion, particularly downgrade-PI-RADS, can reduce unnecessary biopsy procedures and prevent overdiagnosis.

Focal Prostate Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy With Correlative Pathological and Radiographic-Based Treatment Planning. Front Oncol 2021; 11:744130. [PMID: 34604088 PMCID: PMC8480263 DOI: 10.3389/fonc.2021.744130] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/19/2021] [Accepted: 08/19/2021] [Indexed: 11/13/2022] Open
Abstract
Introduction Advances in multiparametric MRI (mpMRI) combining anatomic and functional imaging can accurately identify foci of adenocarcinoma within the prostate, offering the possibility of partial gland therapy. We performed tandem prospective pilot trials to investigate the feasibility of focal prostate SBRT (f-SBRT) based on correlating diagnostic mpMRI and biopsies with confirmatory pathology in treatment planning. Materials and Methods Patients with pathologic focal Gleason 6–7 disease and a corresponding PIRADS 4–5 lesion on mpMRI underwent targeted and comprehensive biopsies using MRI/ultrasound fusion under electromagnetic sensor navigation. After rigorous analysis for imaging biopsy concordance, five of 18 patients were eligible to proceed to f-SBRT. Chi-squared test was used for differences from expected outcomes, and concordance was estimated with binomial distribution theory and Wilson’s method. Results Six patients had Gleason 6 and 12 had Gleason 3 + 4 disease (mean PSA: 5.8 ng/ml, range: 2.2–8.4). Absolute concordance was 43.8% (95% CI: 0.20, 0.64). Patterns of discordance included additional sites of ipsilateral disease, bilateral disease, and negative target. Five were upstaged to a new NCCN risk category necessitating treatment escalation. The five patients with concordant pathology completed three-fraction f-SBRT with sparing of the surrounding normal structures (including contralateral neurovascular bundle), with no reported grade 2+ toxicities and favorable PSA responses (mean: 41% decrease). Conclusions On our pilot trials of f-SBRT planning using rigorous imaging and pathology concordance, image-guided confirmatory biopsies frequently revealed additional disease, suggesting the need for caution in partial-gland therapy. For truly focal disease, f-SBRT provided excellent dosimetry, minimal toxicity, and encouraging biochemical response. Clinical Trial Registration: www.clinicaltrials.gov, NCT02681614; NCT02163317.

Concordance of Gleason grading with three-dimensional ultrasound systematic biopsy and biopsy core pre-embedding. World J Urol 2018; 36:863-869. [PMID: 29392409 DOI: 10.1007/s00345-018-2209-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/13/2017] [Accepted: 01/24/2018] [Indexed: 10/18/2022] Open
Abstract
PURPOSE To determine the value of a three-dimensional (3D) greyscale transrectal ultrasound (TRUS)-guided prostate biopsy system and biopsy core pre-embedding method on concordance between Gleason scores of needle biopsies and radical prostatectomy (RP) specimens. METHODS Retrospective analysis of prostate biopsies and subsequent RP for PCa in the Jeroen Bosch Hospital, the Netherlands, from 2007 to 2016. Two cohorts were analysed: conventional 2D TRUS-guided biopsies and RP (2007-2013, n = 266) versus 3D TRUS-guided biopsies with pre-embedding (2013-2016, n = 129). The impact of 3D TRUS-guidance with pre-embedding on Gleason score (GS) concordance between biopsy and RP was evaluated using the κ-coefficient. Predictors of biopsy GS 6 upgrading were assessed using logistic regression models. RESULTS Gleason concordance was comparable between the two cohorts with a κ = 0.44 for the 3D cohort, compared to κ = 0.42 for the 2D cohort. 3D TRUS-guidance with pre-embedding, did not significantly affect the risk of biopsy GS 6 upgrading in univariate and multivariate analysis. CONCLUSIONS 3D TRUS-guidance with biopsy core pre-embedding did not improve Gleason concordance. Improved detection techniques are needed for recognition of low-grade disease upgrading.

Abstract
The World Federation for Ultrasound in Medicine and Biology (WFUMB) has produced guidelines for the use of elastography techniques, including basic science, breast, liver and thyroid elastography. Here we present elastography in prostate diseases. For each available technique, procedure, reproducibility, results and limitations are analyzed and recommendations are given. Finally, recommendations are given based on the level of evidence of the published literature and on the WFUMB expert group's consensus. This document has a clinical perspective and is aimed at assessing the usefulness of elastography in the management of prostate diseases.
