Assessment of Apparent Diffusion Coefficient Values as Predictor of Aggressiveness in Peripheral Zone Prostate Cancer: Comparison with Gleason Score

Figure 4

Patient with low-risk prostate cancer. Pelvic T2W transverse image (a) shows a well-defined low signal intensity region in the peripheral zone on the right and left mid zones (arrows). (b) DWI-hyper intense signal in corresponding areas. (c) A radiologist-determined region of interest on ADC map shows restricted diffusion in right and left peripheral zones, scored as Gleason 6 on sextant biopsy.
