[Abstract] Objective: To investigate the advantage of advanced diffusion-weighted imaging in the differential diagnosis of transitional zone prostate cancer (TZ-PCa) and benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) compared with single index diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI).Materials and Methods: Forty-eight patients with TZ-PCa and 56 patients with BPH confirmed by pathology were collected. All patients were scanned with conventional sequence, single index DWI and advanced diffusion weighted imaging sequence. advanced diffusion weighted imaging included introvoxel incoherent movement DWI (IVIM-DWI), stretched exponential DWI model (SEM) and diffusion kurtosis imaging (DKI). Measure the diffusion coefficients (ADC, ADCslow, DDC) from single index DWI, IVIM-DWI and SEM and average kurtosis (MK) from DKI, independent sample t-test was used to compare the differences of these parameters between the two groups. The ROC curve was used to evaluate the effectiveness of the parameters in the differential diagnosis of TZ-PCa and BPH, and the AUC between the parameters was compared by Z-test.Results: there were significant differences in ADC, ADCslow, DDC and MK between TZ-Ca and BPH (P<0.001). The diagnostic efficiency of MK, DDC, ADCslow, ADCslow+DDC+MK and ADC value were all higher (AUC> 0.9), the diagnostic efficiency of MK, DDC and ADCslow+DDC+MK was better than ADC value (P<0.05), the diagnostic efficiency of ADCslow+DDC+MK was the highest (AUC=1), and the combined parameters had better sensitivity and specificity than single parameters.Conclusions: advanced diffusion-weighted imaging is superior to the single index DWI in the differential diagnosis of TZ-PCa and BPH. ADCslow+DDC+MK can further improve the sensitivity and specificity of the diagnosis.
