Synopsis

In this study, the ADC value (AQP-ADC) fitted by ultra-high b value diffusion weighted images (UHB-DWI) was used for discrimination between prostate cancer (PCa) from benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). The AQP-ADC value was observed to significantly higher in PCa than in BPH. And AQP-ADC may serve as a potential biomarker for differentiation between benign and malignant prostate lesions.
