Functional MRI in Prostate Cancer Detection
Multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (MP-MRI) has emerged as a promising method for the detection of prostate cancer. The functional MRI components of the MP-MRI consist of the diffusion weighted MRI, dynamic contrast enhanced MRI, and magnetic resonance spectroscopic imaging. The purpose of this paper is to review the existing literature about the use of functional MRI in prostate cancer...
متن کاملMRI in Prostate Cancer
Imaging studies play an important role in detection and management of prostate cancer and MRI especially with the use of endorectal coil because of high contrast resolution is recognized as the best imaging modality in evaluation of prostate cancer. Multiparametric MR study including T1 and T2 weighted images, diffusion weighted images, dynamic contrast study and MR spectroscopy is useful for d...
متن کاملMRI in prostate cancer diagnosis
Prostate cancer is the most common male cancer, with 41,736 men in the UK diagnosed with the disease in 2011, and the incidence continues to increase. However, introduction of prostatespecific antigen (PSA) testing has shifted the risk profile of the disease: the majority of men now present with low risk disease, with an overall cancer-specific 10-year survival of 84%. There is debate as to whe...
متن کاملMultiparametric MRI in Prostate Cancer
Prostate cancer (PCa) is the second most common cancer in men and an estimated 1.1 million men worldwide were diagnosed with prostate cancer in 2012 with almost 70% of the cases occurring in more developed regions [1]. With an estimated 307.00 deaths in 2012, prostate cancer is the fifth leading cause of death from cancer in men [1]. In patients with elevated or rising prostate-specific antigen...
متن کاملAutomatic Prostate Cancer Segmentation Using Kinetic Analysis in Dynamic Contrast-Enhanced MRI
Background: Dynamic contrast enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (DCE-MRI) provides functional information on the microcirculation in tissues by analyzing the enhancement kinetics which can be used as biomarkers for prostate lesions detection and characterization.Objective: The purpose of this study is to investigate spatiotemporal patterns of tumors by extracting semi-quantitative as well as w...
