Excerpt

Multiparametric MRI (mpMRI) of the prostate is one of the truly “hot topics” in radiology today. Although the use of MRI to evaluate the prostate dates back over three decades [1], the extensive recent efforts of clinicians and researchers to advance the science and vet the data have now resulted in high-quality anatomic imaging and the development of functional techniques which have improved prostate cancer detection and staging. This has led to a groundswell of momentum toward acceptance of the utility of mpMRI in the care of the patient with suspected prostate cancer. …
