All studies enrolled GG1 prostate cancer on active surveillance enrollment; 2 × 2 table values were calculated utilizing ≥ GG2 as the definition of reclassification. GRADE calculated according to template available at: https://www.gradeworkinggroup.org/. LR +  = Positive likelihood ratio, LR +  = True positive rate/false positive rate = Sensitivity/(1 − Specificity). LR − = Negative likelihood ratio, LR − = False negative rate/True negative rate = (1 − Sensitivity)/Specificity. Likelihood ratios of surveillance MRI serve to modify initial risk assessment of baseline MRI to give a probability of prostate cancer [28]

PPV positive predictive value, NPV negative predictive value
