Combined magnetic resonance imaging and spectroscopy in the assessment of high grade prostate carcinoma in patients with elevated PSA: A single-institution experience of 356 patients

To assess the ability of combined whole-prostate magnetic resonance imaging and magnetic resonance spectroscopy imaging (MRI + MRSI) to predict the presence or absence of high grade (Gleason 4 + 3 or higher) prostate carcinoma in men with elevated PSA. Between March 2002 and September 2007, 356 subj...
