To correlate 3T dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI (DCE-MRI) kinetic parameters in prostate cancer (PCa) in the transition zone (TZ) and peripheral zone (PZ) confirmed by whole mount histopathology (WMHP) stratified by Gleason Scores (GS) and inter-scanner B1+ field variation. This study demonstrates that clinically relevant heterogeneity between kinetic parameters in low and high grade PCa in the TZ & PZ exists.
