A 70-year-old man who underwent multi-parametric prostate MRI at 3 T. (a) On the axial T2-weighted image, the signal-to-noise ratio is adequate, allowing clear delineation of anatomical structures. No artifacts are present, and the signal-to-noise ratio remains sufficient on both coronal and sagittal T2 W images (not shown). (b) The anatomically matched axial apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) map is artifact-free, with adequate contrast and signal-to-noise ratio, clearly delineating the peripheral and transitional zones. (c) The vessels are clearly delineated, with no visible artifacts on the dynamic-contrast-enhanced image. All readers assigned a PI-QUAL score of 5 for PI-QUAL V1 and a score of 3 for PI-QUAL V2 in this case.
