Overview
The goal of this clinical trial aims to explore the diagnostic efficacy and grading of prostate cancer by a novel MRI sequences such as MAGiC,OGSE,CEST,IVIM,etc.The main question it aims to answer is: Can the novel non-contrast multiparametric MRI imaging improve the accuracy of diagnosis and grading of prostate cancer? For patients with clinical suspicion of prostate cancer, both conventional and new sequences magnetic resonance scans are conducted, with surgical or biopsy pathological results serving as the gold standard.
Interventions
- Other observational study
The researchers will conduct observations, collect data and conduct follow-ups on the participants, but will not actively alter their treatment or health conditions.
Primary outcome measures
- Microstructure parameters related to the OGSE sequence [Time frame: Within one week after the MRI scan]
- CEST sequence-related numerical values [Time frame: Within one week after the MRI scan]
- MAGIC sequence-related numerical values [Time frame: Within one week after the MRI scan]
- IVIM sequence-related numerical values [Time frame: Within one week after the MRI scan]
Secondary outcome measures (1)
- Regular sequence-related numerical values [Time frame: Within one week after the MRI scan]
Eligibility criteria
Inclusion criteria
