[Pathology findings after radical prostatectomy for prostate cancer in patients eligible for active surveillance: Contribution of multiparametric MRI to treatment decision].

Upon confirmation by further studies, mp-MRI should be considered as an independent criterion before entering an AS program. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: 4. PMID: 29789235 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
