Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Grade of conformity of both approaches (mpMRI +/- targeted MRI-guided biopsy versus systemic biopsy) with regards to progression rate to significant prostate cancer (e.g. Gleason Score>7 or T>T2a) after 15+/1 months of active surveillance

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
carcinoma detection rate of mpMRI (t0,t1) Rate of up-grading/staging re-biopsies at t0 and t1 with regards to the primary dignosis Definition of quantitative threshold values (ktrans, ADC for differentiation of low-risk and significant prostate cancer (Gleason>6 or T>T2a) conformity of histopathological results of systematic biopsy and targeted MRI-guided biopsy Definition of quantitative threshold values for e.g. ktrans, ADC and texture for the prediction of the tumor progression to significant prostate cancer (e.g. Gleason Score > 6 oder T>T2a).
