Background:Accurate prostate zonal segmentation on magnetic resonance images (MRI) is a critical prerequisite for automated prostate cancer detection. We aimed to assess the variability of manual prostate zonal segmentation by radiologists on T2‑weighted (T2W ) images, and to study factors that may influence it.Methods:Seven radiologists of...

OBJECTIVE: A reliable estimation of prostate volume (PV) is essential to prostate cancer management. Theobjective of our multi-rater study was to compare intra and inter-rater variability of PV frommanual planimetry and ellipsoid formulas.METHODS: Forty treatment-naive patients who underwent prostate MRI were selected from a localdatabase. PV...
