title: [Clinical use of endorectal coil MR in the study of prostatic pathology with special reference to hyperplasia and carcinoma].
abstract: In this report we evaluated the usefulness of endorectal surface coil MR imaging in the study of prostatic anatomy, age-related changes, benign prostatic hyperplasia and carcinoma. At present, endorectal coil MR imaging seems to be one of the most important diagnostic steps in the study of prostatic diseases, because it is the technique that allow to gain very high resolution images.
