Magnetic Resonance Imaging–Based Prediction of Prostate Cancer Risk

To the Editor We read with great interest the article by Mehralivand et al. The prediction of prostate cancer aggressiveness represents a major concern; from the previous Partin nomograms, several predictive tools (PTs) have been developed to be applied in both the diagnostic and prognostic setting (ie, to distinguish clinically significant [CS] from indolent disease, to avoid unnecessary prostate biopsy or therapies), as well as in treatment planning, to tailor the procedure to the cancer's characteristics.
