Brief summary
VI-RADS was an observational, prospective, multicenter, no profit study. The aim of the study was to clarify the clinical validity of the Vesical Imaging-Reporting and Data System (VI-RADS) for the assessment of muscle invasion (MI) status in comparison with transurethral resection of bladder cancer (TURB) and to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of the score according to the specific tumour location.
Detailed description
The VI-RADS (bladder imaging-reporting and data system) scoring system is an imaging tool that can help distinguish non-muscle-invasive from muscle-invasive disease prior to transurethral resection (TURB). The VI-RADS consists of a five-point scoring system based on the assessment of tumour size, morphology, growth, degree of restriction and contrast capture to assess the likelihood of bladder wall invasion. VI-RADS was an observational, prospective, multicenter, no profit study. The aims of the study was to clarify the clinical validity of the Vesical Imaging-Reporting and Data System (VI-RADS) for the assessment of muscle invasion (MI) status in comparison with transurethral resection of bladder cancer (TURB) and to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of the score according to the specific tumour location.
Interventions
Patients with suspected bladder cancer underwent multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (mMRI) and vescical imaging reporting and data system (VI-RADS) score calculation. After trans-urethral resection of bladder (TURB), the results of biopsy were compared to the VI-RADS score to verify their concordance.

| Sensitivity of Vescical Imaging-Reporting and Data System (VI-RADS) in predicting muscle-invasive bladder cancer after transurethral resection | up to 12 weeks | The sensitivity of Vescical Imaging-Reporting and Data System (VI-RADS) in muscle invasion will be evaluated by comparing the score of VI-RADS with the results of biopsy after transurethral resection of bladder cancer. |
