This study aimed to retrospectively analyze diagnostic consistency and accuracy for prostate disease among six radiologists with different experience levels from a single center and to evaluate the diagnostic pcrformance of PI-RADS v2 scores in the detection of clinically significant prostate cancer (PCa). Methods: From December 2014 to March 2016, 84 PCa patients and 99 benign prostatic shyperplasia patients who underwent 3.0T multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging before biopsy were included in our study. All patients received evaluation according to the PI-RADS v2 scale (1 5 scores) from six blinded readers (with 6 months and 2, 3, 4, 5, or 17 years of experience, respectively, the last reader was a reviewer/contributor for the PI-RADS v2). The correlation among the readers' scores and the Gleason score (GS) was determined with the Kendall test. lntra-/inter-observer agreement was evaluated using K statistics, while receiver operating characteristic curve and area under the curve analyses were performed to evaluate the diagnostic performance of the scores. Results: Based on the PI-RADS v2, the median k score and standard error among all possible pairs of readers were 0.506 and 0.043, respectively: the average correlation between the six readers' scores and the GS was positive, exhibiting weak-to-moderate strength (r = 0.391, P = 0.006). The AUC values of the six radiologists were 0.883, 0.924, 0.927, 0.932, 0.929, and 0.947, respectively. Conclusion: The inter-reader agreement for the PI-RADS v2 among the six readers with different experience is weak to moderate. Different experience levels affect the interpretation of MRI images.展开更多

While the data structure is of indepen- dent interest, we demonstrate its use in the context of high- radiation environments. Our experimental evaluation demon- strates that the resulting approach leads to a significantly higher resiliency rate compared to previous results. This is es- pecially the case for large-scale multi-spectral satellite data, which renders the proposed approach well-suited to operate aboard today's satellites.展开更多
