Abstract：
Multi-parametric prostate MRI (mpMRI) is crucial for diagnosing, staging, and assessing treatment response in individuals with prostate cancer. Radiologists, through an accurate and standardized interpretation of mpMRI, stratify patients who may benefit from more invasive treatment or exclude patients who may be harmed by overtreatment. The integration of prostate MRI into the diagnostic pathway is anticipated to generate a substantial surge in the demand for high-quality mpMRI, estimated at approximately two million additional prostate MRI scans annually in Europe. In this review we examine the immediate impact on healthcare, particularly focusing on the workload and evolving roles of radiologists and urologists tasked with the interpretation of these reports and consequential decisions regarding prostate biopsies. We investigate important questions that influence how prostate MRI reports are handled. The discussion aims to provide insights into the collaboration needed for effective reporting.
摘要：
多参数前列腺MRI（mpMRI）对诊断至关重要，分期,并评估前列腺癌患者的治疗反应。放射科医生,通过对MPMRI的准确和标准化解释，对可能从更多侵入性治疗中受益的患者进行分层，或排除可能因过度治疗而受到伤害的患者。将前列腺MRI整合到诊断途径中，预计将导致对高质量MPMRI的需求大幅增加。据估计，在欧洲每年增加大约200万次前列腺MRI扫描。在这篇综述中，我们研究了对医疗保健的直接影响，特别关注放射科医师和泌尿科医师的工作量和不断变化的角色,这些医师负责解释这些报告以及有关前列腺活检的相应决定.我们调查了影响前列腺MRI报告处理方式的重要问题。讨论旨在提供有效报告所需的合作见解。
