Imaging is becoming critical for guiding management decisions in prostate cancer (PCa) both at initial diagnosis and at recurrence. Multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (mpMRI) and positron emission tomography (PET) of the prostate have proven valuable in the detection and localization of aggressive disease. Therefore, understanding the indications for mpMRI, imaging techniques and interpretation, limitations of current imaging approaches, and utility of PET and simultaneous PET/MRI has become increasingly important.
影像学对于指导前列腺癌(PCa)初诊及复发时的管理决策正变得至关重要。前列腺多参数磁共振成像(mpMRI)和正电子发射断层扫描(PET)已被证明在侵袭性疾病的检测和定位方面具有重要价值。因此,了解mpMRI的适应证、成像技术与解读、当前成像方法的局限性以及PET和同步PET/MRI的效用变得越来越重要。
