The authors report a case of prostate cancer recurrence in the bladder wall after radical prostatectomy studied by magnetic resonance imaging with diffusion weighted and dynamic contrast-enhanced sequences. The apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) and the Time-Intensity (T-I) curves have been used to characterize tumor tissue.Multiparametric endorectal-MRI plays an important role in evaluating pelvic regions for the detection of local recurrence after radical prostatectomy and can improve therapeutic planning in the case of “salvage” therapy.

Abstract
The authors report a case of prostate cancer recurrence in the bladder wall after radical prostatectomy studied by magnetic resonance imaging with diffusion weighted and dynamic contrast-enhanced sequences. The apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) and the Time-Intensity (T-I) curves have been used to characterize tumor tissue.Multiparametric endorectal-MRI plays an important role in evaluating pelvic regions for the detection of local recurrence after radical prostatectomy and can improve therapeutic planning in the case of “salvage” therapy.File in questo prodotto:
