The components of multiparametric MRI, including overall suspicion, are evaluated as predictors of the presence of any cancer and significant (Gleason pattern 4) cancer in MRI-ultrasound fusion targeted biopsies. Clinical parameters and standardized scoring of T2 appearance, dynamic contrast enhancement, and overall suspicion on a 1-5 ranked scale after published recommendations, and the quantitative apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC), were compared with the highest Gleason score in biopsy targets. All parameters were predictive of any cancer and, especially, significant cancer, with almost no significant cancer in low (score 1-2) suspicion targets. All except ADC could significantly discriminate Gleason grades in targets.
