The Role of Multiparametric Magnetic Resonance Imaging and the Vesical Imaging-Reporting and Data System (VI-RADS) in the Management of Patients with Bladder Cancer: Vision of the American College of Radiology VI-RADS Steering Committee

Abstract

The American College of Radiology Vesical Imaging-Reporting and Data System (VI-RADS) Steering Committee will strive to ensure high-quality imaging practices for bladder cancer (BC) and improve outcomes for BC patients. Work will involve evaluation of the current status of magnetic resonance imaging for BC and identify actionable areas to improve its utility in clinical practice. Current VI-RADS gaps related to unmet clinical needs, research areas to address, and future steps and timelines will be identified.
