Synopsis:

In this study, we propose to evaluate histogram analysis of ADC derived by traditional DWI model, diffusion related parameters calculated by using intravoxel incoherent motion (IVIM) model and PI-RADS V2 for the detection of the prostate cancer (PCa) in the transition zone (TZ). Our results show that the highest classification accuracy was achieved by the mean ADC (0.841) and mean D (0.809, acquired by the IVIM model). Our findings suggest that Monoexponential DWI and biexponential IVIM model could potentially improve the accuracy of the pathological grading of prostate cancer in TZ.
