Multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) plays an increasingly important role in the diagnosis and treatment of men with prostate cancer. It is important for urologists to be able to interpret prostate MRI to a high standard so that they can perform accurate targeted prostate biopsy and prostate cancer treatments [1]. The objectives of this study were to assess whether the accuracy of urologists in identifying the presence of clinically significant cancer based on a standardised multiparametric MRI set could be improved by completion of a 2-d training course.

Abstract

Multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) plays an increasingly important role in the diagnosis and treatment of men with prostate cancer. It is important for urologists to be able to interpret prostate MRI to a high standard so that they can perform accurate targeted prostate biopsy and prostate cancer treatments [1]. The objectives of this study were to assess whether the accuracy of urologists in identifying the presence of clinically significant cancer based on a standardised multiparametric MRI set could be improved by completion of a 2-d training course.
