Table 5.
Subgroup analyses of per-target discordance between axial and sagittal cores. The population was stratified based on prior biopsy status and MRI suspicion level.
| Prior biopsy status | MRI suspicion level | Number of biopsy targets | Overall cancer detection rate, % | Discordance, % |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| No prior biopsy | Low | 131 | 12.2 | 3.1 |
| Moderate | 261 | 44.1 | 17.6 | |
| High | 73 | 90.4 | 8.2 | |
| Prior negative biopsy | Low | 237 | 6.8 | 3.0 |
| Moderate | 517 | 23.4 | 7.7 | |
| High | 84 | 65.5 | 14.3 | |
| Prior positive biopsy | Low | 271 | 21.8 | 14.8 |
| Moderate | 547 | 36.7 | 14.8 | |
| High | 67 | 71.6 | 14.9 |
