## Abstract ## Purpose To evaluate the usefulness of the washโin rate based on dynamic contrastโenhanced (DCE) MRI for the detection and localization of prostate cancer. ## Materials and Methods In 53 patients, the washโin rate was measured in the cancer area and in three normal areas (the perip
## Abstract The aim of our study was to estimate uptake of prostateโspecific antigen (PSA) testing in an entire country, including time trends and geographical differences. Data from the Swedish Cancer Register on prostate cancer incidence between 1980 and 2007 and published data from the Gothenbur
