[Abstract] Objectives: To compare the clinical utility of readout-segmented echo-planar imaging (RS-EPI) with single-shot echo-planar imaging (SS-EPI) in diagnosing early prostatic cancers.Materials and Methods: Twenty surgically-proved early prostate cancer patients were collected in this retrospective study. T2WI, RS-EPI and SS-EPI were evaluated by two blinded radiologists. By using 6 sub-region classification method the possibility of the presence of cancer at each sub-region was scored according to the PI-RADS system. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to analyze the diagnostic efficacy of the following 6 protocols: T2WI alone (protocol 1), SS-EPI alone (protocol 2), RS-EPI (protocol 3), a combination of T2WI and SS-EPI (protocol 4) and a combination of T2WI and RS-EPI (protocol 5).Results: The area under the ROC curve (Az) of protocol 1 to protocol 5 for region-based analysis were 0.789, 0.790, 0.874, 0.838, 0.881, respectively. ROC analysis revealed significant differences between protocol 1 and 3, 4, 5, and between protocol 2 and 3, 4, and between protocol 4 and 5 (P<0.05). While the difference between protocol 1 and 2, between 3 and 4, 5 has no statistical significance (P>0.05).Conclusions: The combination of T2WI and DWI can improve the diagnosis ability of early prostate cancers. Combination of T2WI and RS-EPI is a more effective approach than combination of T2WI and SS-EPI for the detection of early prostate cancers.
