Luminal Water Fraction (LWF) is higher in peripheral than transitional zone of the untreated prostate; in comparison, it is significantly reduced in tumors. LWF is correlated with ADC in untreated non-malignant prostate. LWF is not correlated with ADC in tumors or in post irradiated prostate indicating that the morphological factors affecting LWF and ADC in these tissues are independent.
