Multiparametric MRI of the prostate of a 59-year-old patient with an elevated serum PSA level of 12.1 ng/ml, who was diagnosed with a biopsy-proven prostate cancer with Gleason 4+4 in the right side of the transition zone (arrows). A T2WI, B ADC map, C high b-value DWI, and pharmacokinetic maps of D Ktrans, E Kep,and F iAUGC. G MRSI grid and color-coded map of (Cho + Spm + Cr)/Cit values overlaid on T2WI, with red circle identifying a voxel in cancer region and green circle for a voxel in normal tissue. Left: MR spectrum from voxel of cancer tissue spectrum (red box). Right: MR spectrum from voxel of normal tissue (green box)
