Abstract/OtherAbstract:
|
This review illustrates the relevance of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for the detection or exclusion of prostate cancer. The functional MR methods dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI (DCE-MRI), MR spectroscopy, and diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) helped in recent years to establish MRI as the imaging method of choice for prostate cancer. Indications for MRI of the prostate regarding recent guidelines and new concepts of cancer therapy are introduced. |
