Prostate imaging is a rapidly developing field. Transrectal ultrasound and other diagnostic imaging modalities such as CT and MR imaging are now being used to detect, localize, stage, and follow up prostate cancer. Furthermore, the application of new functional imaging techniques for these purposes is also under investigation. At a time when imaging is becoming more technically complex and advanced, this book is an essential tool. It provides a comprehensive overview of the current role of the various imaging modalities in patients with prostate cancer. New developments are fully explored, with individual chapters devoted to Doppler and contrast-enhanced ultrasound, dynamic contrast-enhanced MR imaging, spectroscopy, diffusion-weighted imaging, image fusion, positron emission tomography, USPIO MR imaging, and high-field MR imaging. All of the authors are recognized experts in the field, and the text is complemented by a wealth of high-quality illustrations.
