## Abstract ## Purpose To compare the apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) values of prostate cancer in both the peripheral zone (PZ) and the transition zone (TZ) with those of benign tissue in the same zone using echo‐planar diffusion weighted imaging with a parallel imaging technique. ## Materi

## Abstract ## Purpose To investigate the utility of apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) values for discriminating tumor in patients with prostate cancer from normal prostatic tissues in healthy adult men, and to identify correlations between ADC and histologic grade of prostate cancer. ## Mater
## Abstract Determination of the apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) of the prostate in men (__n__ = 60) with raised prostate‐specific antigen (PSA) or an abnormal digital rectal examination (DRE) prior to transrectal ultrasound (TRUS) guided biopsy using endorectal DWI is reported. Patients were
