PI-RADS: Where Next?
Barış Türkbey, Andrei S. Purysko
Abstract
Prostate MRI plays an important role in the clinical management of localized prostate cancer, mainly assisting in biopsy decisions and guiding biopsy procedures. The Prostate Imaging Reporting and Data System (PI-RADS) has been available to radiologists since 2012, with the most up-to-date and actively used version being PI-RADS version 2.1. This review article discusses the current use of PI-RADS, including its limitations and controversies, and summarizes research that aims to improve future iterations of this system. © RSNA, 2023 See also the review “Adnexal Lesion Imaging: Past, Present, and Future” by Sadowski et al in this issue.
