abstract = {Mean ADC has high predictive value for the presence of
clinically significant prostate cancer (sPC). Measurement
variability is introduced by different scanners, protocols,
intra-and inter-patient variation. Internal calibration by
ADC ratios can address such fluctuations however can
potentially lower the biological value of quantitative ADC
determination by being sensitive to deviations in reference
tissue signal.To better understand the predictive value of
quantitative ADC measurements in comparison to internal
reference ratios when measured in a single scanner, single
protocol setup.284 consecutive patients who underwent 3 T
MRI on a single scanner followed by MRI-transrectal
ultrasound fusion biopsy were included. A board-certified
radiologist retrospectively reviewed all MRIs blinded to
clinical information and placed regions of interest (ROI) on
all focal lesions and the following reference regions:
normal-appearing peripheral zone (PZNL) and transition zone
(TZNL), the urinary bladder (BLA), and right and left
internal obturator muscle (RIOM, LIOM). ROI-based mean ADC
and ADC ratios to the reference regions were compared
regarding their ability to predict the aggressiveness of
prostate cancer. Spearman's rank correlation coefficient was
used to estimate the correlation between ADC parameters,
Gleason score (GS) and ADC ratios. The primary endpoint was
presence of sPC, defined as a GS ≥ 3 + 4. Univariable and
multivariable logistic regression models were constructed to
predict sPC. Receiver operating characteristics curves (ROC)
were used for visualization; DeLong test was used to
evaluate the differences of the area under the curve (AUC).
Bias-corrected AUC values and corresponding 95 $\%-CI$ were
calculated using bootstrapping with 100 bootstrap
samples.After exclusion of patients who received prior
treatment, 259 patients were included in the final cohort of
which 220 harbored 351 MR lesions. Mean ADC and ADC ratios
demonstrated a negative correlation with the GS. Mean ADC
had the strongest correlation with ρ of -0.34, followed by
ADCratioPZNL (ρ=-0.32). All ADC parameters except
ADCratioLIOM (p = 0.07) were associated with sPC p<0.05).
Mean ADC and ADCratioPZNL had the highest ROC AUC of all
parameters (0.68). Multivariable models with mean ADC
improve predictive performance.A highly standardized
single-scanner mean ADC measurement could not be improved
upon using any of the single ADC ratio parameters or
combinations of these parameters in predicting the
aggressiveness of prostate cancer.},
