[Value of NMR tomography in the diagnosis and staging of prostatic neoplasms].
MR imaging (MRI) possesses good sensitivity in diagnosis of carcinoma of the prostate. It is often not possible to distinguish clearly between carcinoma of the prostate and prostate hypertrophy. MRI can assess the local extension of a prostate carcinoma with a high degree of accuracy (85%); this applies in particular to periprostatic infiltration. MRI possesses only moderate sensitivity in diagnosis of regional lymph node metastases in the minor pelvis.
