Synopsis

Transcytolemmal water exchange effects are quantified with SSM-DCE MRI and DWI kurtosis imaging with b-values up to 2000 s/mm2. The two-dimensional scatter plot of the unidirectional cellular water efflux rate constant (kio) and the diffusion kurtosis (K) shows good separation between lesion and normal appearing prostate tissue.
