Abstract
Lesions involving only the central gland/zone seen on MRI are less concerning for malignancy and should not be given equal weight as peripheral zone lesions. In this series, no lesions involving solely the central gland/zone, regardless of PI-RADS score, was positive for malignancy on MRI/US fusion-guided biopsy. Consideration of a modified PI-RADS scoring system should be given to help identify central zone lesions with malignant potential.
