Normal 3T MR Anatomy of the Prostate Gland and Surrounding Structures

Abstract: Development on new fast MRI scanners resulted in rising number of prostate examinations. High-spatial resolution of MRI examinations performed on 3T scanners allows recognition of very fine anatomical structures previously not demarcated on performed scans. We present current status of MR imaging in the context of recognition of most important anatomical structures.

“…Using deep learning classifiers on MRI-extracted LSTM features to detect prostate cancer, it is evident that we have achieved (100%) specificity and positive predictive value, where the accuracy (99.48%) was obtained using the same technique. The deep learning classifiers ResNet-101 achieved the highest AUC value of (1) and MCC (1). The results also show that the LSTM classifier and ResNet-101 has a false positive rate of (0%), which is the lowest among all classifiers.…”

“…The typical prostate, when not affected by BPH, measures approximately 3 cm x 3 cm x 5 cm [7], with 25 cm 3 representing the upper limit of normal prostatic volume [8]. In the normal prostate, the PZ comprises approximately 70% of its total volume, the CZ approximately 25%, and the TZ approximately 5% [9]. Particularly in patients with larger total prostate volumes, the enlarging TZ may cause thinning and effacement of the PZ [10].…”

“…Although the prostate does not histologically contain a capsule, overlapping layers of fascia surround the PZ and appear on T2WI as a hypointense line often referred to as the prostatic "capsule". An additional T2hypointense line between the TZ and PZ is considered the "surgical capsule" and, though technically a pseudocapsule, represents an important plane for surgical interventions [9].…”

“…MRI offers excellent soft tissue contrast and different prostatic zones can be reliably distinguished and accurately measured [16]. Quantification of the exact prostate volume, exclusion of prostate cancer prior to therapy of an enlarged prostate and detection of pathologies leading to LUTS are promising use cases for mpMRI that have not yet been implemented in current guidelines.…”
