Clinical TrialWash-in rate on the basis of dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI: usefulness for prostate cancer detection and localization.
To evaluate the usefulness of the wash-in rate based on dynamic contrast-enhanced (DCE) MRI for the detection and localization of prostate cancer. ⋯ The wash-in rate based on DCE-MRI is a useful parameter for prostate cancer detection and localization.

Clinical TrialApplication of 3D-MR image registration to monitor diseases around the knee joint.
To estimate the accuracy and consistency of a method using a voxel-based MR image registration algorithm for precise monitoring of knee joint diseases. ⋯ The present method based on an NCC algorithm can be used to register serial MR images of the knee joint with error on the order of a sub-voxel. This method would be useful for precisely assessing therapeutic response and monitoring knee joint diseases; normalized cross-correlation; accuracy.
