To investigate if Luminal Water Imaging (LWI), which models multi-compartment T2 decay, can predict the PIRADS 2.0 score of a region of interest (ROI). 52 patients were scanned using both standard mp-MRI and a 32-echo T2 sequence, ROIs were placed in areas of suspected lesion and suspected benign tissue and then these ROIs were each given a PIRADS 2.0 score. The results show that LWI can predict PIRADS 2.0 score as well as the Apparent Diffusion Coefficient (ADC).
