| Popis: | The multiparametric approach expanded the clinical applications for prostate magnetic resonance (MR) imaging to include not only staging but also a correlation with tumor aggressiveness. It can also help to guide biopsies, to achieve a higher tumor detection rate, and to better reflect the true Gleason grade. The improved accuracy provided by multiparametric MR imaging and a better understanding of the clinical significance of the imaging findings can pave the way to a more direct role of MR imaging in patient management. |
