Abstract

PURPOSE: Computer-aided diagnosis (CAD) may improve prostate cancer (PCa) detection and support multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (mpMRI) readers for better characterization. We evaluated Watson Elementary (WE) CAD system results referring to definitive pathological examination in patients treated with robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) in a tertiary referral center.
