Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the value of endorectal coil(E-coil) in the diagnosis of prostate diseases.Methods The comparative study was done with E-coil and body coil in 15 patients including 9 cases of prostate carcinoma,4 cases of benign prostatic hyperplasia and 2 normal individuals.The conventional spin-echo sequence(SE T 1WI,FSE T 2WI)were done in all cases.The axial images obtained with two types were compared according to the subjective viewing and scoring.Results Overall imaging quality on E-coil was significantly superior to that on body coil.The average scores were 2.97?0.61 points with body coil vs 3.4?0.60 points with E-coil on T 2WI (?
