    Abstract Background The urinary bladder neoplasm is considered the second most frequent kind of neoplasm globally, after prostate cancer. Bladder neoplasm clinical management strategies and prognosis depend on the extent of loco-regional disease. MRI is increasingly being employed for preoperative, local staging of BC. The aim of this study was to expose the mastery of bi-parametric MRI (MRDWI and T2WI conjunction) with signal intensity-based MR segmentation in evaluation of UB neoplasm mural invasion if unaccompanied by contrast-enhanced MRI with special concern to Vesical Imaging Reporting and Data System (VIRADS) score taking the histopathological diagnosis as a reference. Results This prospective study was conducted on 99 patients (with 100 UB lesions), who were referred from the urology department with bladder neoplasm suspicion. The mean age of the patients was 64.8 years. About 66.6% of the cases were smokers. The most common pathology of the UB neoplastic lesions was urothelial carcinoma. ADC in muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC) was significantly lower than in non-invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC), with the minimum to maximum value of the ADC in all cases about 0.01–2.0. Also, we have done DWI at different b values, where b 1000 turned out to be the most accurate in detection of muscle invasion. Sensitivity, specificity, PPV, NPV and accuracy were calculated for T2WI only VIRADS, DWI only VIRADS, bi-parametric MR (T2WI and DWI)-based VIRADS, signal intensity-based MR segmentation VIRADS and for bi-parametric and MR segmentation conjunction-based VIRADS. The diagnostic performance for the combination of the bi-parametric MRI and signal intensity-based MR segmentations attained the highest values in sensitivity, specificity, PPV and NPV as well as accuracy. Conclusions Bi-parametric MRI (MRDWI with T2WI) and signal intensity MR segmentation conjunction have proven to be efficacious in accurately determining the UB neoplasm mural invasion allowing for the dispensability of CE-MRI in the event of contrast contraindications, unavailability or even its high cost.
