Materials & Methods:Data was collected from patients with suspected prostate lesions attending/referred from different parts of Gujarat and also some from other states who come out to our imaging centre located in the premises of Gujarat cancer and research institute (GCRI). A total of 50 subjects were included. This was followed by evaluation with perfusion map and contrast kinetic analysis.Results:In the present study, in Adenocarcinoma final diagnosis, 2(6.5%) patients had DCE -CURVE TYPES I, 2(6.5%) patients had DCE -CURVE TYPE II and 27(87.1%) patients had DCE -CURVE TYPE III.Conclusion:The efficacy of Mp-MRI including the findings that morphological (T1W and T2W) and functional (DWI/ADC and DCE) modalities increase the performance of MRI in detecting cancer. |
