## Abstract ## Purpose: To evaluate the diagnostic ability of diffusionโweighted imaging (DWI) and dynamic contrastโenhanced imaging (DCEI) in combination with T2โweighted imaging (T2WI) for the detection of prostate cancer using 3 T magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) with a phasedโarray body coil.
Magnetic resonance images were obtained from 32 patients with acute myocardial infarction, using a four-echo technique (echo time (TE) = 30, 60, 90, and 120 ms) pregadolinium(Gd)-DTPA injection and a TE = 30 ms sequence pre- and post-Gd-DTPA. Intensity ratios of infarcted and normal myocardium were
