    ObjectiveTo evaluate role of multiparametric MRI (mp-MRI) in differentiation between invasive and non-invasive bladder cancer and accuracy of vesical imaging reporting and data system (VI-RADS) score.Methods And Materials50 patients diagnosed as cancer bladder were enrolled in this study, mp-MRI including conventional (T1 weighted imaging and high resolution T2 weighted imaging) and functional sequences (diffusion-weighted imaging and dynamic contrast enhanced-MRI) were done, all data were regrouped to evaluate the accuracy of each separate sequence and mp-MRI in distinguishing non-muscle invasive from muscle-invasive tumors, with VI-RADS score application and comparison with pathological findings, then interobserver agreement for detection of muscle invasion according to mp-MRI and VI-RADS scoring system findings was calculated.ResultsDiagnostic accuracy of mp-MRI in differentiation between muscle invasive and non-muscle invasive bladder cancer was (84%) with highest sensitivity (78%), very good agreement between mp-MRI and histopathological data (k = 0.87), and highest area under curve (AUC) reaching 0.83, dynamic contrast enhanced-MRI sequence showed the highest accuracy in muscle invasion detection by (88%), with highest AUC 0.83. Diagnostic accuracy of VI-RADS score in detection of muscle invasion was 84%, with specificity and negative predictive value of 88% and AUC was 0.83. Interobserver agreement was strong as regard diagnostic performance of mp-MRI and VI-RADS scoring for detection of muscle invasion reaching (K = 0.82, p < 0.001) and (K = 0.87, p < 0.001) respectively.Conclusionmp-MRI is considered as comprehensive and effective tool for determination of muscle invasion in cases of urinary bladder cancer. Also VI-RADS scoring system can accurately differentiate between invasive and non-invasive bladder cancer.Advances In KnowledgeThe VI-RADS system was recently suggested for the uniform evaluation of muscle invasion in cancer bladder by mp-MRI. In this paper, we applied this system to 50 cases to evaluate its ease and compared the results with the histopathological findings for evaluation of its accuracy.
