  Figure 568-04-001.  Motion Correction Technique for T2-weighted Fast-Spin-Echo MRI of the Prostate using Navigator TR
Dahan Kim, Roger Grimm, Eric Borisch, Stephen Riederer
Mayo Clinic, Rochester, United States of America
Impact: With only a few additional TRs, the proposed technique potentially allows correction of local physiological motion, such as bowel-induced prostate displacements, which can occur independently of bulk body motion and is more difficult to correct using conventional approaches.
  Figure 568-04-002.  Optimal Selection of the Effective TE for T2-weighted Fast-Spin-Echo MRI of the Prostate at 3T: Effect on Lesion Conspicuity
Dahan Kim, Ronard Pabi, Eric Borisch, Adam Froemming, Roger Grimm, Sara Hassanzadeh, Akira Kawashima, Ayumu Kido, Naoki Takahashi, John Thomas, Stephen Riederer
Mayo Clinic, Rochester, United States of America
Impact: Given no consensus-based recommendations for the effective echo time (TEeff) for prostate T2W FSE imaging of prostate cancer, this study provides a systematic and comprehensive study on its echo-time-dependent contrast behavior, providing a potential basis for informed TEeff selection.
  Figure 568-04-003.  Bi-parametric quantitative prostate MRI using a single 3D reduced FOV distortion-free sequence
Yannik Ott, Sarah McElroy, Raphael Tomi-Tricot, Carolyn Horst, Rahul Khamar, Omar Darwish, Vicky Goh, Radhouene Neji
King's College London, London, United Kingdom
Impact: This work demonstrates joint ADC and T2 quantification for bi-parametric prostate examinations within one single 3D scan.
  Figure 568-04-004.  Multi-Shot Reduced-FOV Prostate DWI at 0.55 T For Distortion-Reduced Imaging Near Hip Prostheses
Michael Jaroszewicz, Hero Hussain, Jacob Richardson, Vikas Gulani, Yun Jiang
University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, United States of America
Impact: A pathway toward distortion-reduced diagnostic prostate DWI for patients with hip implants. This approach may support broader adoption of mid-field, reduced-FOV multi-shot methods that may enable high-quality DWI when hardware is present without compromising diagnostic confidence, SNR, or image quality.
  Figure 568-04-005.  Synthetic Magnetic Resonance Imaging combined with Amide Proton Transfer-weighted Imaging in Grading of Prostate Cancer
Zeyu Zhao, Jie Shi, Jie Bao, Qian Zhang, Chenhan Hu, Xiaomeng Qiao, Minrui Zhou, Ximing Wang
The First Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University, Suzhou, China
Impact: Combining SyMRI and APTw enables comprehensive, noninvasive assessment of prostate cancer aggressiveness by integrating structural and metabolic information, improving preoperative risk stratification and supporting personalized clinical decision-making.
  Figure 568-04-006.  Scanner-integrated Fiducial Localization for MRI-Guided Trans-perineal Procedures of the Prostate
Omer Demirel, Spencer Waddle, Aiming Lu, Lance Mynderse, David Woodrum
Philips North America Clinical Science, Rochester, United States of America
Impact: This work introduces a fully scanner-integrated fiducial localization tool for MRI-guided trans-perineal prostate procedures. By eliminating external computers and third-party software, it streamlines workflow for planning needle trajectories directly within the MRI environment.
  Figure 568-04-007.  High-resolution Diffusion-Weighted Imaging of the Prostate using Complex Signal Average: Initial Experience
Atsushi Nakamoto, Takashi Ota, Hideyuki Fukui, Toru Honda, Kengo Kiso, Koki Kaketaka, Takumi Tanigaki, Eriko Yoshidome, Akio Osamura, Yuki Takai, Masatoshi Hori, noriyuki tomiyama
The University of Osaka Graduate School of Medicine, Suita, Japan
Impact: Complex signal average combined with SR-DLR improves image quality in high-resolution prostate DWI. The associated ADC increase, likely from reduced noise floor, indicates enhanced accuracy in quantitative diffusion assessment.
  Figure 568-04-008.  The value of APT weighted and diffusion kurtosis imaging in avoiding unnecessary biopsy in patients with PI-RADS score of 3-4
Zijian Gong, Jiankun Dai, Yinquan Ye
The Second Affiliated Hospital, Jiangxi Medical College, Nanchang University, China
Impact: Our study showed APTw and DKI are valuable for the diagnosis of pathological csPCa in PI-RADS 3-4 patients. Additional application of APTw and DKI would be beneficial for avoiding unnecessary biopsy in prostate cancer patients with PI-RADS score of 3-4.
  Figure 568-04-009.  T2-weighted imaging of the prostate using accelerated 2D VORTEX FSE with cartesian and non-cartesian read-out
Rory Cochran, Ranjodh Dhami, Eugene Milshteyn, Ajeetkumar Gaddipati, MARY THOMAS, Anand Venkatachari, Arnaud Guidon, Madhangi Parameswaran, Azadeh Tabari, Susie Huang, Clare Tempany, Mukesh Harisinghani, Ivan Jambor
Massachusetts General Hospital, Boston, United States of America
Impact: Accelerated (scan time between 50 to 93 seconds) T2-weighted imaging of prostate using VORTEX FSE is feasible and of diagnostic quality. PROPELLER VORTEX technique is preferred over cartesian read-out for sagittal and coronal imaging.
  Figure 568-04-010.  Feasibility of Multifrequency MR Elastography of the Seminal Vesicles in Healthy Men, BPH and Prostate Cancer
Kevin Davis, Hans-Martin Thieß, Patrick Asbach, Eugenio Tiberi, Timm Denecke, Bernd Hamm, Bernhard Gebauer, Jens Vogel-Claussen, Ingolf Sack, Rolf Reiter
Charité – Universitätsmedizin Berlin, Berlin, Germany
Impact: The feasibility of MRE has never been established for the seminal vesicles, despite their relevance for prostate cancer (PCa) staging. This study demonstrates that fluidity (φ) is a more sensitive biomarker than stiffness for detecting pathologies, possibly enhancing disease diagnosis.
  Figure 568-04-011.  Reduced Tissue Sodium Concentration in Prostate Cancer Revealed by 23Na-MRI at 3 T
Sang-Young Kim, Eunju Kim, Chan Kyo Kim
Philips Healthcare, Seoul, Korea, Republic of
Impact: 23Na-MRI may provide a promising non-invasive biomarker by measuring TSC for the detection of prostate cancer.
  Figure 568-04-012.  Clinical Validation of a 64-Channel Ultra-Flexible RF Coil for Prostate Cancer Detection
Jesús Conejero, Jana Vincent, Victor Taracila, María de la Luz Jurado Gómez, José de Arcos, José Algarín, Edward Baus, Arnaud Guidon, Luis Martí-Bonmatí, Leonor Cerdá-Alberich, fraser robb, Joseba Alonso
Institute for Molecular Imaging and Instrumentation (i3M), Consejo Superior de Investigaciones Científicas & Universitat Politècnica de València, Valencia, Spain
Impact: Our novel 64-channel coil can improve diagnostic accuracy of prostate cancer by delivering higher SNR, enhanced tissue contrast, and sharper anatomical detail than available coils, while its high channel density ensures uniform coverage across a wide range of patient anatomies.
  Figure 568-04-013.  Radiogenomic Dynamics: ST-GNNs Analysis of CDC20-Associated High-Risk Habitats in Prostate Cancer
Xiaofeng Qiao, Xiaojing He, Lihao Xiao
The Second Affiliated Hospital of Chongqing Medical University, Chongqing, China
Impact: This study aims to validate ST-GNNs for decoding the dynamic evolution of CDC20-associated high-risk habitats in prostate cancer. This enables non-invasive tracking of key biological drivers and significantly improves personalized prognosis by moving beyond static imaging assessments.
