Abstract

There is increasing evidence to suggest the value of bi-parametric prostate MRI to replace multi-parametric MRI, which includes the dynamic contrast enhancement (DCE) sequence. In this review, we discuss the value of DCE in select scenarios, specifically in resolving equivocal cases, improving the diagnostic accuracy in the inexperienced reader, rescuing exams in the settings of failed T2W and DWI, detecting biochemical recurrence, while imposing minimal to no risk to the patient with respect to IV gadolinium use, specifically group II agents.
