Summary

The objective of this study is to evaluate the feasibility of 3T magnetic resonance spectroscopic imaging (MRSI) of the prostate in improving the spectral resolution, using a perfluorocarbon compound (PFC)-filled endorectal coil.

Specific Aim 1: To compare the spectral quality, measured in Hz (linewidth), of 3T MRSI performed with an air-filled endorectal coil (AIR-MRSI) and a PFC-filled endorectal coil (PFC-MRSI).

Specific Aim 2: To compare the quality of spectra of PFC-MRSI by grading the overall quality of MRSI data of each patient subjectively as being "excellent," "good," "fair," "poor," and "non-diagnostic," based on the status of subjective spectral resolution of Cho, Cr and Po peaks, signal to noise ratio (SNR), baseline distortion, and fat contamination.
