Duplicated Prostate Artery Central Gland Blood Supply: A Retrospective Analysis and Classification System.

Angiograms and cone-beam computed tomography scans of 36 consecutive prostate artery embolization patients (72 hemipelves) between October 2014 and February 2018 were reviewed. The hemipelves were classified according to the presence of dual central gland (CG) blood supply and the pattern of vascularization: Type 1 with a single CG blood supply (83.3%; n = 60); Type 2 with 2 independent CG arteries with overlapping territories (9.

Breast and prostate MRI: new frontiers in women and men's imaging.

The very high sensitivity and increased specificity of breast and prostate MRI, due to recent technical advances, enables more lives to be saved due to earlier diagnosis. Demand for breast MRI continues to increase due to the American Cancer Society's 2007 guidelines, recognition of its benefit by breast surgeons, and requests from patients at high risk due to dense breast tissue, family history, or other factors. With these more recent additions of perfusion,diffusion,and spectroscopy to anatomic information, prostate MRI is being more readily accepted by urologists as part of the staging evaluation for the appropriate subset of patients with prostate cancer, or pre-diagnosis evaluation for specific subsets of patients.
