Concurrent developments include important work in the standardization of MRI reporting. The low specificity and positive predictive value of MRI means that biopsy is still necessary following MRI. MRI-targeted prostate biopsy has emerged as an alternative diagnostic test to transrectal ultrasound guided prostate biopsy, though its exact role in biopsy-naïve men and the optimal technique remain to be defined.</span></p><h4 style="font-size: 13px; margin: 0px 0.25em 0px 0px; text-transform: uppercase; float: left; font-family: arial, helvetica, clean, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 10pt;">SUMMARY:</span></h4><p style="margin: 0px 0px 0.5em; font-size: 1.04em; font-family: arial, helvetica, clean, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 10pt;">There is the potential for MRI to be used as a triage test to allow a proportion of men to avoid biopsy and remain on prostate-specific antigen surveillance. MRI-suspicious areas can be sampled more intensively using MRI-targeted biopsy that can be carried out in a variety of ways. Future work should focus on the cost-effectiveness of introducing a prebiopsy MRI pathway in biopsy-naïve men and addressing the training needs for such a change.
