Možnosti využití pokročilých MR technik při zobrazování malé pánve / Possibilities of using advanced MR techniques in pelvic imaging

(AJ) The three aims of the work were as follows: 1. Comparison of prostate magnetic resonance (MR) examination results from 1.5 T and 3 T scanners in patients with prostate carcinoma (PCa). MR findings of 103 patients (ages 44-72 years) were compared with histopathological results after radical prostatectomy. The work was focused on the accuracy of predicting local cancer staging and determining prostate tumour location. Patients were divided into three groups (A, B and C) based on the type of MR scanner and protocol used. Patient groups A and B were examined in 1.5T and 3T MR scanners equipped with surface coils in the identical multiparametric MR imaging protocol included dynamic contrast examination (DCE). Patient group C was examined in a 3T MR scanner without DCE. The highest accuracy of predicting the stage of PCa was seen in patients examined in 3 T MR scanner with DCE included in the protocol, however, no significant differences were seen between results from 1.5 T and 3.T MR scanners. No significant difference was also found in the accuracy of determining the location of prostate tumour between 1.5 T and 3T MR examinations, however, there were significant differences between sequences used, with the highest accuracy attained by using a combination of T2 weighted sequences and diffusion...
