Abstract
Purpose
To evaluate the incremental effect of perfusion imaging on biopsy target identification
at endorectal multiparametric prostate magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).
Materials and methods
We retrospectively 52 patients who underwent endorectal multiparametric prostate MRI
for suspected or untreated prostate cancer. Two readers independently identified biopsy
targets without and with perfusion images.
Results
Reader 1 identified 36 targets without and 39 targets with perfusion imaging (P>.05). The corresponding numbers for reader 2 were 38 and 38, respectively (P=.5).
Conclusion
Perfusion imaging does not significantly increase the number of biopsy targets identified
at endorectal multiparametric prostate MRI.
