lüll Multidisciplinary functional MR imaging for prostate cancer Kim JK; Jang YJ; Cho GKorean J Radiol 2009[Nov]; 10 (6): 535-51Various functional magnetic resonance (MR) imaging techniques are used for evaluating prostate cancer including diffusion-weighted imaging, dynamic contrast-enhanced MR imaging, and MR spectroscopy. These techniques provide unique information that is helpful to differentiate prostate cancer from non-cancerous tissue and have been proven to improve the diagnostic performance of MRI not only for cancer detection, but also for staging, post-treatment monitoring, and guiding prostate biopsies. However, each functional MR imaging technique also has inherent challenges. Therefore, in order to make accurate diagnoses, it is important to comprehensively understand their advantages and limitations, histologic background related with image findings, and their clinical relevance for evaluating prostate cancer. This article will review the basic principles and clinical significance of functional MR imaging for evaluating prostate cancer.|Contrast Media[MESH]|Humans[MESH]|Image Enhancement/methods[MESH]|Image Interpretation, Computer-Assisted/methods[MESH]|Magnetic Resonance Imaging/*methods[MESH]|Male[MESH]|Prostatic Neoplasms/*diagnosis/pathology[MESH] |
