External validation of inter-reader reliability of the Prostate Imaging after Focal Ablation (PI-FAB) scoring system following focal cryoablation and focal high-intensity focused ultrasound.
Journal Article Eur Radiol · April 2, 2025 OBJECTIVES: The efficacy of focal therapy (FT) has improved with the use of multiparametric MRI (mpMRI) for lesion identification, though standardized mpMRI reporting post-FT is lacking. The Prostate Imaging after Focal Ablation (PI-FAB) scoring system was ...
