Abstract
MRI-guided targeted biopsy (MRGB) was recommended as part of biopsy paradigm of prostate cancers by current guidelines. This study aimed to analyze the diagnostic efficacy of MRGB and systemic biopsy (SB), and to compare diagnostic capabilities within subgroups of MRGB: MRI-cognitive biopsy (MRCB) and MRI-fusion biopsy (MRFB). We retrospectively enrolled patients who underwent MRGB for suspicious malignant lesion(s) identified on MRI in a single tertiary center, sample size was 74 patients. An mpMRI was performed prior to biopsy and reviewed by an experienced radiologist specialized in prostate cancer. Per-person results of MRGB and each concomitant SB were analyzed as independent biopsies for its positive biopsy rate and positive core percentage. Per-lesion results of MRFB and MRCB were compared for the detection rate. Variables of interest were analyzed with t-test, chi-squared test, and logistic regression analysis. Statistical analyses were performed with IBM Statistical Product and Service Solutions (SPSS), Version 23 (IBM, Armonk, New York). Total of 74 patients fulfilled the inclusion criteria and were enrolled. MRFB had higher PCa detection rate comparing to both MRCB and SB (56.1%, 30.3%, and 33.9% respectively, p value = 0.036); clinically significant prostate cancer (csPCa) detection rate was also significantly higher in MRFB group (43.9%, 24.2%, and 16.9% in each group respectively, p value = 0.011). In per-lesion analysis, MRCB and MRFB had no significant difference in PCa and csPCa detection rate (41.0% vs. 26.2% and 29.5% vs. 16.7% respectively, p value = 0.090 and 0.103). In the lesion ≦ 1.3 cm group, MRFB could achieve higher PCa detection rate, comparing to MRCB (36.4% vs. 14.3%, p value = 0.047); there were also higher positive rates for PCa and csPCa per biopsied cores (22.1% vs. 6.8% and 15.6% vs. 2.7%, p value = 0.029 and 0.028, respectively). Further logistic regression of multi-variate analysis in subgroup of lesion ≦ 1.3 cm revealed that PIRADS score and biopsy method were significant predictors of positive biopsy result for PCa (p value = 0.045 and 0.026, respectively) and for csPCa (p value = 0.043 and 0.025, respectively). In patients receiving trans-perineal prostate biopsy, MRFB had higher cancer detection rate than MRCB and SB. In per lesion comparison, MRFB and MRCB had similar diagnostic accuracy. However, in lesions with diameter less than 1.3 cm, MRFB can provided better diagnose value for PCa and csPCa than MRCB.
