Abstract
OBJECTIVE. Although the Prostate Imaging Reporting and Data System version 2 (PI-RADSv2) has been widely adopted and is generally considered a success, it has clear limitations. The purpose of this article is to highlight the strengths and weaknesses of PI-RADSv2 and discuss ways that it can be improved. CONCLUSION. PI-RADSv2 has improved standardization of acquisition and interpretation of prostate MR images. Although it improves the detection of clinically significant cancers, its subjectivity and intrareader variability limit its accuracy and reproducibility, causing concerns regarding its reliability.
