Head-to-head comparison of prostate MRI using an endorectal coil vs a non-endorectal coil: Meta-analysis of diagnostic performance in staging T3 prostate cancer

Clinical Radiology Nov 16, 2019

Tirumani SH, et al. – Researchers compared the diagnostic performance of prostate MRI with an endorectal coil (ERC) with performance without an ERC using either body-array (BAC) or pelvic phased-array coil (PAC) in staging T3 prostate cancer. Eight studies comparing head-to-head prostate MRI with an ERC and with a BAC/PAC were identified of which six studies compared the diagnostic performance. In terms of sensitivity and specificity for T3a, no statistical variation between an ERC and a BAC/PAC were discovered. Thus, in the diagnostic performance of MRI of prostate with an ERC and with a BAC/PAC in staging T3 prostate cancer, no notable variation was concluded.
