Prospective Cohort Study of the Ability of MRI/DTI to Diagnose Prostate Cancer in Men Undergoing Prostate MRI

The purpose of this study is to examine if investigators can improve diagnosis of prostate cancer by using MRI/DTI?

Study Overview

Status

Unknown

Intervention / Treatment

Detailed Description

This is a prospective cohort study of the ability of MRI/DTI to diagnose prostate cancer in men undergoing prostate MRI.

Study design: Male adults who are scheduled to undergo MRI of the prostate, for clinical reasons, will be subjected to additional 10 minutes of image acquisition inside the MRI machine. The added MRI/DTI acquisition does not involve injection of additional contrast material. Investigators will compare between ability of the full mp-MRI images to diagnose prostate cancer to that of the MRI/DTI images

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: DTI acquisition
Addition of up to 10 minutes in MRI machine purpose of acquiring additional DTI images
The Philips Ingenia 3.0T is an MRI machine intended to be used by specialist radiologists in the hospital. It is able to acquire high quality images of wide variety of organs. For imaging the prostate, T2-weighted turbo spin-echo images are normally obtained in three orthogonal planes (axial, sagittal and coronal). This device is been clinically used in the MRI department in Belinson hospital.
