Just had my mpMRI yesterday and was wondering how long it takes to get results and how the results are given i.e. scores/graded

Thank you in anticipation

Typically a few weeks. Results are graded on the PIRADS scale, which assigns a score of 1-5 to each lesion seen in the scan. 1 means very unlikely to be cancer; 5 means very likely to be cancer.

Yes, this is normal

Update. No results shared just advised of the need for biopsies to be taken. This is now within the next 10 days. Is this normal protocol?
