Table 5. PI-RADS v2 DCE score.
DCE | Grading standards |
---|---|
DCE negative | (I) No reinforcement in the early stage |
(II) Enhanced diffusion, with no corresponding focal expression on TWI or DWI | |
(III) Corresponding lesions on DWI showed features of prostatic hyperplasia with focal enhancement. Negative DCE is defined as having one of the three | |
DCE positive | Focal, prior to or concurrent with the enhancement of adjacent normal prostate tissue, consistent with the corresponding suspicious lesions of TWI and DWI |
