Abstract
The Prostate Imaging Reporting and Data System (PI-RADS) version 2 emerged as standard in prostate magnetic resonance imaging examination. The Pi-RADS scores are assigned by radiologists and indicate the likelihood of a clinically significant cancer. The aim of this paper is to propose a methodology to automatically mark a magnetic resonance imaging with its related PI-RADS. We collected a dataset from two different institutions composed by DWI ADC MRI for 91 patients marked by expert radiologists with different PI-RADS score. A formal model is generated starting from a prostate magnetic resonance imaging, and a set of properties related to the different PI-RADS scores are formulated with the help of expert radiologists and pathologists. Our methodology relies on the adoption of formal methods and radiomic features, and in the experimental analysis, we obtain a specificity and sensitivity equal to 1. The proposed methodology is able to assign the PI-RADS score by analyzing prostate magnetic resonance imaging with a very high accuracy.
