简要总结
This prospective diagnostic accuracy study compares computed tomography (CT) and multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) using the Vesical Imaging-Reporting and Data System (VI-RADS) for local staging of newly diagnosed bladder cancer. All participants undergo both imaging modalities prior to transurethral resection of the bladder tumor (TURBT) or cystectomy. Histopathology serves as the reference standard.
详细描述
Accurate local staging is crucial for distinguishing non-muscle-invasive from muscle-invasive bladder cancer and guiding treatment decisions. While CT is widely used in clinical practice, MRI with VI-RADS has demonstrated higher diagnostic performance in previous retrospective and meta-analytic studies. However, prospective paired comparisons in the same patients are limited.
In this single-center prospective study, newly diagnosed bladder cancer patients undergo cystoscopy, contrast-enhanced CT, and multiparametric MRI prior to definitive histopathological sampling. Two radiologists independently assess imaging in a blinded research setting. Diagnostic performance of MRI and CT is compared using paired statistical analyses, with additional evaluation of interobserver agreement and tumor characteristics.
