The Development and Validation of MRI-AI-based Predictive Models for csPCa

January 27, 2026 updated by: Peking University First Hospital
This study retrospectively included patients who underwent prostate magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and subsequent ultrasound-guided prostate biopsy at Peking University First Hospital from January 2019 to December 2023, and prospectively enrolls patients from January 2024 to December 2029. Clinical information such as age, PSA levels, PI-RADS scores, and digital rectal examination findings are collected. A well-performing artificial intelligence model is employed to measure prostate volume, transitional zone volume, and lesion volume using MRI images. Furthermore, prostate-specific antigen density (PSAD), transitional zone-based prostate-specific antigen density (TZ-PSAD) and lesion-based prostate-specific antigen density (lesion-PSAD) are calculated using prostate volume, transitional zone volume and lesion volume. Utilizing the aforementioned data, machine learning predictive models for clinically-significant prostate cancer (csPCa) are developed and validated.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Biopsy pathology results
Time Frame: 1week after biopsy
The pathology report will include the ISUP grade; if it is greater than or equal to 2, it is considered csPCa (clinically significant prostate cancer), otherwise, it is classified as non-csPCa.
1week after biopsy
