Sažetak
With its excellent display of soft tissues and the possibilities of three-dimensional display, magnetic resonance has become one of the fundamental diagnostics in the display of prostate and its pathological conditions since its beginnings 40 years ago. Although there is greater availability of devices for magnetic resonance with a field strength of 1.5T, the recommendation of the European Association of Urogenital Radiologists is that imaging of the prostate with magnetic resonance is performed on devices with a field strength of 3T. 3T devices were introduced due to the increased signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), which can be used to shorten recording time or increase resolution, i.e. improve image quality. There is more and more research into the application of quantitative techniques such as Magnetic resonance fingerprinting, T2 mapping, BOLD, which could improve the detection and quantification of prostate cancer lesions, and by optimizing the protocol at 1.5T and 3T it is possible to perform exam of equal diagnostic value.
