The only way you can get a PIRADS Score is if there is a lesion, they are scoring. Very weird.

It sounds to me like he Is unable to do a fusion biopsy, which would use your MRI to direct the ultrasound to find that lesion and at least get three samples from it.

@jeffmarc according to AI......"you don't need a discrete lesion to have a Pi-Rads category. A prostate MRI with no focal suspicious findings can still be reported as a Pi-Rads 1 (normal) or Pi-Rads 2 (benign appearing changes).
