## Abstract ## Purpose: To evaluate the principal methodological aspects of whole‐body magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) including diffusion‐weighted imaging (DWI) with background suppression using a time‐optimized protocol for restaging of prostate cancer patients in a technical feasibility study.
## Abstract We present T2‐weighted and diffusion‐weighted images of kainic acid lesions in the rat brain. Our observations show improved image contrast between edematous lesions and unaffected tissue using diffusion‐weighted imaging. Furthermore, we show that the anisotropic intensity changes assoc
## Abstract ## Purpose To evaluate the accuracy of T2‐weighted (T2WI) with diffusion‐weighted imaging (DWI) as compared with T2WI alone for predicting seminal vesicle invasion (SVI) of prostate cancer. ## Materials and Methods A total of 30 patients with SVI and 136 patients without SVI who unde
