FB = first biopsy; IQR = interquartile range; PNB = previous negative biopsy; Pt = patient; Nb = number; MR = magnetic resonance; MRI magnetic resonance imaging; T2WI = T2-weighted imaging; DWI = diffusion-
weighted imaging; DCEI = dynamic contrast-enhanced imaging; MRSI = magnetic resonance spectroscopic imaging; NR = not reported; Bx = biopsy; TRUS SBx = transrectal ultrasound-guided standard biopsy;
TPBx = transperineal template biopsy; TBx = targeted biopsy; PCa = prostate cancer; PI-RADS = Prostate Imaging Reporting Data System; PSA = prostate-specific antigen; PZ = peripheral zone; TZ = transition zone.
Figures between parenthesis correspond to standard deviations; intervals between brackets correspond to full ranges or interquartile ranges when specified (IQR). The asterisk sign indicates median value (as opposed to
mean value).
