Multiparametric MRI (mpMRI) was evaluated for the assessment of prostate cancer aggressiveness. For the peripheral zone only the ADC calculated from DWI should be used in combination with anatomical T2-weighted imaging. In the transition zone, both pharmacokinetic parameters (Ktrans and Kep) derived from DCE-MRI and metabolite ratios (CC/C and C/C) from MRSI may be useful additions to T2-weighted imaging and DWI for the discrimination of indolent versus significant PCa
