Abstract Prostate carcinoma is the second most frequent cause of cancer-related death in men. DWI is one of the evolving functional MR imaging that assess tissue cellularity. The ADC maps can provide quantitative measurements of tissue water diffusivity through ADC values.

Using the ADC values as a biomarker for assessment of prostate cancer aggressiveness may help appropriate management of this disease |
