| Abstract |
Growing research supports the use of multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (mpMRI) for the evaluation of localized prostate cancer (PCa). We highlight contemporary evidence supporting its use in active surveillance (AS). The emerging approach to localized PCa favors risk-adapted screening, image-guided biopsies, and selective therapeutic interventions. mpMRI is increasingly critical to achieve each of these aims. Early evidence suggests a value of mpMRI before initial biopsy to guide fusion targeting and to rule out non-organ confined disease as well as in the initiation and serial monitoring of men on AS. There remain concerns regarding understaging cancer with mpMRI and the standardization of expertise beyond the most experienced centers. mpMRI is emerging as a critical decision point for staging localized PCa and guiding AS strategies. While there is increasing enthusiasm, the optimal clinical scenario and sequencing remains to be defined. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 10 February 2018.
All research outputs
#18,554,389
of 22,979,862 outputs
Outputs from Current Urology Reports
#503
of 592 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#241,926
of 317,259 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Current Urology Reports
#12
of 22 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 22,979,862 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 11th percentile – i.e., 11% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 592 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a little more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 6.2. This one is in the 5th percentile – i.e., 5% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 317,259 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 13th percentile – i.e., 13% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 22 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 4th percentile – i.e., 4% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
