- Original description
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.Read full original descriptionShow less
Prospective Diagnostic Accuracy Study Comparing CT and MRI (VI-RADS) for Local Staging of Newly Diagnosed Bladder Cancer
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.
Inclusion: Age ≥ 18 years; Newly diagnosed bladder cancer on cystoscopy; Planned TURBT or cystectomy within 6 weeks; Eligible for both CT and MRI within 6 weeks; Written informed consent provided.
Exclusion: Prior treatment for bladder cancer; Non-malignant bladder lesions; Contraindications to MRI or iodinated contrast media; Pregnancy; Tumors located in bladder diverticula.
