• Characterisation and quantification of tissue fat on MRI can be used to provide information on disease processes. • Fat in bone and lymph nodes up until recently have not been exploited for diagnostic purposes or response monitoring in prostate cancer. • Fat imaging on MRI using Dixon/PDFF sequences has the potential to add clinical value in the future but prospective data is needed.
• 磁共振成像(MRI)上组织脂肪的特征描述和定量分析可用于提供有关疾病进程的信息。
• 直到最近,骨骼和淋巴结中的脂肪尚未用于前列腺癌的诊断目的或反应监测。
• 使用狄克逊/质子密度脂肪分数(Dixon/PDFF)序列进行的MRI脂肪成像未来有可能增加临床价值,但需要前瞻性数据。
