The pathological features of MRI-undetectable csPC included shorter minor diameter and lower percentage of Gleason pattern 5. csPC with shorter minor diameter may not be detected on mpMRI. Some MRI-undetectable csPC lesions exhibited sufficient size and Gleason pattern 5, emphasizing the need for further understanding of pathological factors contributing to MRI detectability.
