Figure 2. Location and Gleason score of the detected tumors.

Figure 2

The vertical line separates right from left and the horizontal lines separate the anterior from posterior portions of the prostate at the base, mid-gland and apex. Green, tumors detected by MRI only; blue, tumor exclusively detected by systematic biopsy; pink, tumors detected by both approaches. While 4/13 (31%) were located in the posterior peripheral zone, there were 9/13 (69%) in the anterior gland, 9/13 (69%) in the apex, 2/13 (15%) in the mid-third of the gland and 2/13 (15%) in the base. The majority of the cancers detected (10/13, 77%) had a Gleason score ≥7.
