Magnetic resonance imaging has become an important imaging modality for the male pelvis. Its unparalleled ability to depict soft tissue structures and highlight pathology have made it the best method for determining the extent of many disease processes. This article reviews the use of MR to evaluate diseases of the prostate gland and bladder.

This article will discuss the critical clinical issues concerning prostate cancer and neoplasms of the bladder, and the contribution of MR imaging.
