About

BCN RC

Features
Read full description

The Barcelona Risk Calculator (BCN-RC) of significant prostate cancer (sPCa) in prostate biopsies was developed based on two predictive models (PMs). One model (BCN-PM 1) is used to identify candidates for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to help avoid unnecessary imaging, while the other (BCN-PM 2) is used to select candidates for prostate biopsy.
