Prostate MRI Practices and PI-RADS Use in China's Mainland: A Nationwide Assessment and Opportunities for Standardization

Listen to this summary

The authors aimed to assess the prevalence, technical standardization, and reporting practices of prostate MRI and the adoption of the Prostate Imaging-Reporting and Data System (PI-RADS) across mainland China. Their nationwide survey revealed significant variability in practices, with only a minority of hospitals fully implementing essential protocols and PI-RADS reporting, indicating a critical need for national standardization efforts to enhance diagnostic consistency for prostate cancer.
