Anatomic Imaging of the Prostate

Figure 7

Prostate cancer. Axial T2WI showing a right anterior transitional zone tumor within the midgland, likely also involving a portion of the anterior fibromuscular stroma. Notice that the tumor creates a slight anterior bulge (arrowheads). According to the TNM staging system, this tumor involves less than 50% of a single lobe of the prostate, thus indicating a T2 tumor.
