Zusammenfassung

Purpose: As 3.0-T offers a higher SNR it was of interest to examine whether at 3.0-T using a phased-array coil alone a comparable depiction of the prostate could be achieved compared to imaging with a combined phased-array/endorectal coil at 1.5-T. Method and materials: 18 patients (mean 67.7±8.4 ys.) who had elevated PSA levels and histologically proven prostate cancer (T2/T3) underwent MR imaging at 3.0-T using a phased-array coil. 10 of these patients were also examined at 1.5-T using combined phased-array/endorectal coils. An imaging protocol was established at 3.0-T which included a transverse pelvic scan w…
