Abstract Purpose To develop and evaluate machine learning models based on MRI to predict clinically significant prostate cancer (csPCa) and International Society of Urological Pathology (ISUP) grade group as well as explore the potential value of radiomics models for improving the performance of radiologists for Prostate Imaging Reporting and Data System (PI-RADS) assessment. Material and methods A total of 1616 patients from 4 tertiary care medical centers were retrospectively enrolled. PI-RADS assessments were performed by junior, senior, and expert-level radiologists. The radiomics models for predicting csPCa were built using 4 machine-learning algorithms. The PI-RADS were adjusted by the radiomics model. The relationship between the Rad-score and ISUP was evaluated by Spearman analysis. Results The radiomics models made using the random forest algorithm yielded areas under the receiver operating characteristic curves (AUCs) of 0.874, 0.876, and 0.893 in an internal testing cohort and external testing cohorts, respectively. The AUC of the adjusted_PI-RADS was improved, and the specificity was improved at a slight sacrifice of sensitivity. The participant-level correlation showed that the Rad-score was positively correlated with ISUP in all testing cohorts (r > 0.600 and p
