Pelvic adenopathy in prostatic and urinary bladder carcinoma: MR imaging with a three-dimensional TI-weighted magnetization-prepared-rapid gradient-echo sequence.

Abstract

MR imaging with a 3D MP-RAGE sequence was accurate in revealing nodal metastases from carcinoma of the prostate and bladder. This imaging technique can be used to select patients for biopsy or laparoscopic pelvic lymph node dissection.
