Signal Intensity of High B-value Diffusion-weighted Imaging for the Detection of Prostate Cancer
Background: Diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) is a main component of multiparametric MRI for prostate cancer detection. Recently, high b value DWI has gained more attention because of its capability for tumor characterization. Objective: To assess based on histopathological findings of transrectal ultrasound (TRUS)-guided prostate biopsy as a reference, an...
متن کاملDiffusion weighted imaging of the prostate—principles, application, and advances
This review article aims to provide an overview on the principles of diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (DW-MRI) and its applications in the imaging of the prostate. DW-MRI with regards to different applications for prostate cancer (PCa) detection and characterization, local staging as well as for active surveillance (AS) and tumor recurrence after radical prostatectomy (RP) will be ...

متن کاملInvestigation of prostate cancer using diffusion weighted IVIM imaging
Introduction: Diffusion-weighted Imaging (DWI) and the derived apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) were reported by several groups [1,2] to differentiate cancerous and healthy tissue in the prostate. The Intravoxel Incoherent Motion (IVIM) Theory, which predicts an additional component in the signal equation due to perfusion [3], could recently be applied to the liver and the pancreas [4,5]. F...
متن کاملHigh-Resolution Diffusion-weighted Imaging Increases Prostate Cancer Visibility?
Article history: Received 13 April 2016 Accepted 13 April 2016 Available online 16 April 2016 Gleason score of tumors found with transrectal ultrasound compared to radical prostatectomy (ranging from 30 to 50%, depending on initial Gleason score) (Pinthus et al., 2006; Corcoran et al., 2011). This highresolution technique may further improve lesion characterization and ultimately be used to per...
